Knocking sound in port side


Hi all.

I'm new to the carver boats. Just bought a 2000 carver 356 aft cabin. Has 7.4 mercruser' and a 7.3 kW genny. I bought this boat from FL. When I got it on the water for the first time in GA it ran good till we were halfway across the lake and the port side engine wouldn't hold RPM. It starts up every time and dose. OT run hot. Runs right on temp wise. I've been told the gas in the boat is probably old just want to run it by you guys before I call a mechanic to come look at it.

Please note that my Genny and the port engine run off same port side main tank. And I also have a problem with it revving RPM's and them backing down repeatedly for a few min then it shuts down. I can most of the time start it right back up only to have it do the same thing. I am attaching a video of the port engine running today. PLEASE HELP!!
