Fished all day yesterday without any issues. Rarely ever do i put it in the corners but typically somewhere around the inside of the jetties the throttle goes to the corner. After cruising all day at 4200rpms I was happy about the boats performance etc being the first trip of the year. Anyhow soon found out I had issues. My motor would hit over 4500rpms and immediately get extremely jumpy (almost like being out of gas) I have changed everything I know of and am assuming this may be an injector issue? If that is the case:
A. Is it still fine to fish tomorrow if i keep it at cruise?
B. Anyone else have any advice?
C. Can it be fished tomorrow?

filter/screen inside vapor tank(where the high pressure fuel pump is) and the high pressure fuel filter. you might want to sit down when you find out how much those filters are. And no, i would not recomend running it as is. HPDI’s run lean as is, allowing it to run leaner under load is just going to finish it off.
do not run a 2 stroke motor with a fuel issue
they will blow up.
those motors also have a belt driven fuel pump on the back of the motor, that has some small built in filters

was looking on thehulltruth and gathered some info. hoping it is the small filters and really hope its not the HPP. If that is the issue may decide to re-power. Putting 2k in an 8 yr old motor just doesnt seem to make sense to me. Chris I researched some info on those filters, do you carry them or have a good source for them? Believe there are 4 approx 14mm? Am I correct?

we stock those filters
not sure about the 14mm

update: vst looked clean, after putting the gauges on it and running it appeared that it was either in there or somewhere before that since it dropped off so bad. Looked at old fuel line and pulled it off where it connects to the factory line in the motor. Completely clogged, had about 4 feet of cheap grey fuel line in the wiring harness that I could not even blow through, replacing that today. On a good note was pleasantly surprised by the vst especially since I do run ethanol
