2004 175 hp Opti
Fresh fuel
Always run Seafoam/Quickcleen/Marine Stabil
About 200 hrs of service
Running Opti Oil
Starts well, idles well, at full throttle and in between runs well, no alarms.
The problem arises when throttling up slowly and steady it bogs and rpm does not increase and "loads/stumbles" the engine at about 2000rpm - but it doesn't stall. and I have to bring it back to idle in gear and it putters fine at idle again.
The only way I can bring up the throttle without bogging is by mashing it from idle while in gear and then back off to desired rpm and it then runs fine at all rpms.
Anybody experience this or have suggestions?
