Engine Stalling

My atomic4 starts right up and runs fine until I try to accelerate. If you try to throttle up (in Nuetral) the engine just dies. You can nurse it up slowly and it will sputter a little and then finally accelerate.

Engine will also stall nine out of ten times when it is put into gear (forward or reverse) regardless of throttle position. When it doesn't stall, the engine RPM drops to nearly a stall and then picks back up.

Finally, boat speed under power is down from where it was in the spring (but this could be from summer bottom fouling)
