Here is my problem:
-Yamaha 2004 300 HP HPDI
-Installed in a 24 feet boat
- Motor purchase used.
- Service done last week in a reputed outboard shop. All filters changed. Impeller changed. New sparks plugs.
- Motor start every time without any issues.
- Gas tank was empty when I purchase the boat and fairly clean in my inspection. I put 50 gallon of gas around 2 months ago and added Yamaha Ringfree.
- The gas lines are the original ones.
- Controls are new
- When in the trailer the motor can reach 3500 RPM in forward gear (did not want to push it more to avoid overheating)
- When I put the boat in the water, is not able to pass 1200 RPM. The motor feels more comfortable running at 900 RPM (5-6 MPH).
- From 900 to 1200 RPM is vibration in the boat, like if the boat is laboring hard. I run the boat at 1200 RPM for about 2 miles. No alarms.
I am lost here. I don't know what to do next.Opinions and advice will be highly appreciated.
Thanks
