I was bring my Carver 44 from the marina I purchased the boat from to my hailing port (70 miles) and had a little problem. The two main fuel tank gauges show a much higher fuel level underway and at about 1/4 tank my port engine started to loose rpm. the engine would lose rpm and then recover, lose rpm and then recover..............
I stopped the boat and when I did, I noticed the port tank was buried empty. I switched over to my aux tanks and problem improved, but definitely DID NOT go away. I believe I just fouled the filter of maybe the separator or both but I'm not sure.
Any other suggestions?

Sounds like your on the right track, bad fuel or filters. Always start with the simple stuff.
