Suzuki df-25a 2018

2018 suzuki DF-25A starts instantly. Will troll all at at idle or slightly higher. Try to accelerate and it drops cylinders and dies. New tank, hose, recreation gas always used. It will restart and idle immediately after, but will not accept throttle. I've spent 831 dollars so far with no resolve.

I bought my 2017 DF25A new and it initially ran great. After the first year it randomly would suddenly loose power when running at full throttle and die. It would always restart but would die as soon as put in gear. I have been left stranded so many times by this unreliable motor. Every year I buy the maintenance kit. I have replaced the fuel hose, the fuel connectors. the fuel tank, the fuel pump, the fuel filters, the neutral safety switch, the kill switch, all of the fuel lines in the motor itself and replaced all the fuel line clamps with high quality auto fuel injection style clamps. It will seem fine and might run for an hour or two but then the exact same thing happens. Each time I think the problem is fixed the exact same issue comes back at the worst possible time. This motor left me stranded at about 1am in the middle of the Mississippi river about 15 miles downstream from my launch. I walked all night and much of the next day through swamps and mosquito infested hell to get home. I am afraid to use my boat because this motor is so damn unreliable.
