1. Took the boat out today, jumped right up to plane for about 1 min. I didn't touch anything and lost rpm. Did all the normal checks, firm ball, tried to choke, fresh fuel etc. I had the same problem a few weeks ago so I pulled the drain plugs on the carbs and sprayed some carbs cleaner into the high speed orfices, then blew them out with compressed air. Seemed to clear up the problem but now it's back. I guess it's time for a carb rebuild right?
2. I noticed the tell tale was weak. A week ago I took the 1/16" dia grommet off the end of the tell tale and water was coming out with great force. A gentleman in this forum told me that I should put it back on, so I did.
Now it's a very weak stream. Doesn't seem to be running hot though.
your thoughts please.
