Howdy, Country Boy.<br /><br />Go to www.outboardrepairs.com and look up power loss.<br /><br />Please do not post all capitals. It is hard to read and is considered shouting on the net.<br /><br />If you have no luck there, come back here and tell us what you did and what you found.<br /><br />Good luck.
