    It is not abnormal for the engine to kick up out of the water when it stalls out like that at higher RPM.  Does it seem like it overheated?  Is the paint on the powerhead burnt/smells burnt when you remove the engine cover?  Post pictures if that will help.

    Hoping it is just a simple issue like fuel starvation.
