The motor starts first time, sounds like it is idleing fine at the dock on all cylinders. When I take it out the most power I can get out of it is 1/2 even when the throttle is full. I have replaced the fuel line from the tank to the engine; checked the fuel filter and it is OK. I have noticed that the electronic ignition Board where the 3 spark wires come from is very loose and it is supposed to be held in place by like 3 bolts that bolt into a rubber insulator that is tight against the engine. Does anyone know if this problem could cause loss of power?<br />I would not think so. My plugs look fine, no fowling. although I should probably buy new ones (NGK BUCHX). Maybe my fuel tank is not venting. Did not check that. If anyone has had this problem let me know. <br /><br />Docbumper
