I've got a 89 F5 Force 150hp on an Arriva 2001 ski/runabout.<br />I had the thre carbs cleaned and decarbed last year for poor idling and rough running.<br />That seems to be corrected. While the shop was at it they added a new primer bulb<br />and installed an inline filter to capture the debris that was showing up in a gas sample.<br />I took it out anticipating a good day on the lake, but the motor has no power.<br />The RPMs get to about 3000 and I can barrly get it to 20 MPH. It use to get to 4-4.5K and 35-40 MPH.<br />New plugs and gas. same prop 21 pitch cupped. The fuel pump has never been serviced, that might be the next thing.<br />I really have to stnad on the throttle to get it to 3K rpm. It seems like it wants to go higher but I'm running out of throttle.
