When i push my throttle all the way down in forward the motor tends to bogg but when i pull it back just a bit the motor runs fine?? i have checked linkage and everything is good ... butterflys straight up and down when throttle fully open ... is there any reason for this??

Re: Throttle issue

Did this just happen all of a sudden, or get worse a little at a time?

I am not sure, I just got the boat at the begining of this season and have been getting it running better. if anything it has improved, but only to a point.

Check float level in carb , sounds like it may be starving for fuel.

I checked the timing and set it to 6 degrees before, it was at 2 degrees after. This helped alot now it gets up and goes but you still have to pull the throttle back a bit to get it to go WOT
