I have a Yamaha 130hp 2 stroke V4. Great running motor but now won't go over 4 mph.
It shifts F-N-R just fine. All linkage seems to be moving properly and moving to the correct position.
When in the water it goes in forward and the boat starts moving but when you try to give it throttle it just free revs like it were in neutral and then when you bring the throttle back down it starts moving again.
On the hose it will rev up fine and the prop keeps on going. Seems like this only happens under load.
Is there something to be adjusted or does this need a new lower unit?
Also, when you shift in gear while not running the prop is tight just like it should be.
