I'm having a problem with my carb.When I get in the throttle the boat hesitates If I ease into it ,it runs fine,but if I stand on it it hesitates.I'm running a mild 454 with a victor intake and a 850 dbl pumper demon,I've changed the jets down to 80's all the way around I think last time I rebuilt it I put a 50cc pump in the back and replaced the 30cc that was in it,do you guys think this might have something to do with it? The only other thing I can think of is to change the squirters to a smaller size.It's probably too much carb and intake for this basically stock motor though!
