I had an 87 merc with the exact same symptoms and after checking out everything that had to do with fuel I still had the problem. I took it to a mechanic and he found that 1 of the power pacs ( 2 in that engine) was cutting out at high speed. He replaced it and problem solved. I would still start with the fuel system - simple things first.

Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day ...
show him where to fish and ... you'll be sorry
