Re: throttle problems
Hi Kiw0N2,sounds like the problem I have with my 77 rude 70hp.did you try to claen & adjust your choke solenoid?My motor was bogging down at about 3kts,if I gave a little throttle it would die.I tried cleaning my carbs(3 times),synchronizing the linkage,compression,coils,spark plugs and timing,but it did not help until I claened & adjusted the solenoid plunger.It still boggs a little but does not die and the engine runs alot better.Hope this will help a little.It helped me.Good luck and Aloha!!!!<br /><br />~sym
