Post 23hp Briggs won’t run with load added to it
Need help. Mud buddy 23 runs great out of the water, but as soon as I dip the prop in the water it only idles then eventually sputters and dies. I have replaced the carb, spark plugs, checked all of the wire connections, And about everything j know to do. I thought the rev limiter might have been the problem, but I took it off, and same outcome. I got the rev limiter wet at one point and I figured that was the problem. Just wondering if maybe I shorted out the circuit breaker or something. Just need some help. Thanks!!

I can go ahead and tell you what everyone’s gona say.
Check your compression and do a leak down test and go from there.

That sounds like it's a fuel problem.

Just checked and figured out I’m only running on one cylinder
