    Evinrude maxes at 3800RPM

    My craft usually tops out at ~30MPH. Two weeks ago while cruising at WOT, the RPM dropped and my top speed now is only 20MPH@3800RPM. I checked compression on all cylinders that were all around 95psi and I am getting spark in all cylinders. I have a 1987 e90tlcur. Thanks
