First post on here so be nice to the newbie. I have a 1991 Yamaha 150 TLRP on my 17' bass boat. Bought it used knowing that the boat did not plane correctly but thought I could fix it. I did all the normal tune up items which made a big difference but it still would bog down when you really open up the throttle. I was able to get up on plane as long as my son sat up towards the bow and I eased into the throttle so we just managed with it that way. Then one day out of the blue while heading back to the ramp, this thing takes off like you just kicked in the turbo. It was amazing how well it ran. It ran well for about 6 months and then out of the blue we are back to no plane and bog down at take off. What the heck??? Any tips, suggestions or personal experiences would be appreciated. Hey Rodbolt, I respect mechanical knowledge, any suggestions on this one?
