checked it seems to be fine and just had carbs gone through and that didnt fix it either,took boat out tonight and when i run wot with motor trimed up and then back off rpm's dont come down and boat keeps going for 3-5 secs then revs up to 5000rpm's with selector in neutral for 2-3 secs and then back down to 1400rpm's,but if i run wide open with the motor down and back off it wont rev up,any ideas???
