well today i took the boat out for a test run and for the first hour or so it went fantastic.
over 40mph and reving as it should.
a couple of times i slowed down a bit and just cruised and all fine, opened it up again and it ran great.
Then a while later ran it flat out and it went good again, then when i slowed down i knew it didnt sound right and would only go slow ???????????
limped back to the dock and switched it off,let it cool down even though the head felt stone cold.
20 minutes later it started up straight away but sounded like it was missing real bad.
It wouldnt rev and realy sounded rough.
fuel primer still nice and firm, but engine a bit smokey,would not even rev up much on the warm up lever.
the engine just wouldnt respond to throttle and coughed a couple of times as well.
i thought maybe the carbs need to come off yet again, but decided to try and limp back up river about 1/2 mile.
started up fine ran like a pig,sounded horrible,gave it full throttle and it seemed rough.
then all of a sudden it just burst back into life and realy screamed off down the river.
everything now seems to be perfect again.
Someone mentioned it might have gone into S.L.O.W Mode ???????
why does the engine go into this SLOW mode ?
And what is the correct way to get it back out of SLOW mode ?
i dont have the vro connected up anymore,i use older style fuel pump, i run pre-mix 50-1.
fuel is fresh today.spark plugs new
I do have a rectifier problem in that its not charging and no rev counter to be precise on revs
but you can hear this engine is getting full power when it runs good.
i would estimate when it went bad it was running around 1500-2000 rpm max.
any ideas as to why this would do this ? it never got hot,infact stayed very cool indeed.
