    05' 225 Optimax problem

    When I'm coming up out of the hole it gets up to 3000-3500 rpms... Then nothing....feels like it wants to break over and run, but no...It never dies, just goes into idle mode it seems...i then just loaded it up....this is the first time I've had any problem with this motor and has always performed well... I Do a regular maintenance with plugs, filters, lower unit, etc...could it be a fuel delivery problem, fuel pump? Guesses? Any help?
    Thanks
    Gary
