A few weeks ago my 1969 was running great. I was pulling people on the tube and skis. Today, when I got on the water I push the throttle all the way and it only goes < 10mph.
I took the cover off and looked at the carbs when pushing full throttle... the carbs only open a tiny crack. What could the issue be?
I've read on this forum, that the distributor and whatever is above the distributor can get locked up. I haven't tried greasing it up yet.
What else could it be? I'm no engine expert. Why would it stop working, when it was working great a few weeks ago? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
*EDIT* Also I marked the spot on my throttle box where the distributor starts turning. It's almost half way down. I tried adjusting the throttle and other cable, but not luck.
