Hello folks,
I have a 1988 9.9 short shaft Johnson that isnt coming up to speed. The motor starts fine and idles fine. When I go to get on the throttle the motor sounds like it will do fine then bogs down and will go no faster. I dont seem to be running enough RPS. The motor is on a 15'4 Gheenoe highsider and it should plane the boat off fine and run around 15 mph. It wont plane the boat and it isnt running fast at all.
Thanks,
Shudy
