The lower cable may be in a bind. Pull the drive and disconnect cable at the shift plate and see if it moves easy with your fingers

.... when you try to throttle in rev as soon as you touch the throttle it dies. ...

That sounds like a kink in the cable, or a load of crud in the back of the slider. You'll be pulling the drive off to replace the impeller, so while it's off, pull the shift cable inner and clean up the cavity and the inside of the slider...
