Hey Guys, I have a 86 Bayliner Capri with Penta 350. My problem is I
can get it started and then it will just die after a minute of idle.
When I give it gas, it bogs down and dies too. This problem just
started. I have replaced the fuel filter and fuel pump. Should I also
replace points? Carb is pumping the gas with no prob. it seems from
visual inspection.

Thanks


I'd check the coil also. Sounds similar to a problem I had with a
Mercruiser 5.7L.
