I had the same problem with my I/O, have you changed the filters yet? Fuel/water sep? Do you have good fuel? My question to you is, has anybody messed with the shift cable lately? if so then they had not adjusted it corectly. try puting you shifter in neutral/coldstart, and revving engine. does it stall? if not now shift into gear does it die? then it can be either a bad adjustment in the shift cable or the timing is off. sounds like your water seperator is plugged or the fuel filter if you have changed the water seperator recently and it is suddenly full of water then you probably picked up water in your gas somehow and will probably have to drain the tank or it will fill a new water seperator again Are you using a small fuel tank, if So ensure the Air Vent is OPENED.

If it dies when throttle is quickly advanced, but accelerates slowly if throttle advanced slowly, carbuerator may need rebuild/cleaning.
