I have done a compressoin test and its 120psi & 121 psi.<br />problem with a mystery linkage that engaged a 'govenor' that made the max power @20% with full throttle,it looks like a newtral safy for prevention of over revving motor when in newtral.<br />when this linkage is enaged the jellyfish outrun me .... :( <br />found problem,fliped the black thing all the way in down position and ZOOM!!!!! it pushed me,boat,trailer out of driveway and into the road...<br /><br />thanks,peace all
