Okay,
I am a newbie to this site and to boating. But bought a used pontooner with a DF115 injected 4 stroke. Has had little issues with battery connections,trim motor,etc. But has been out. All of a sudden last night took her out, and now when I am idling, its at 1700 rpms in nuetral. Used to be around 900-1000. Also when I take off, boat feels sluggish. Almost like it has a snowmobile clutch on it, but slipping. Rpms will be at 5000, but boat will be surging a bit. And feels like something is slipping. I am a machine mechanic, so any help on this baby would be appreciated!!!
Cheers
Tom

I would get it hooked up to computer to see what it says is wrong. These newer motors are nice, but just like cars they need to proper test equipment to look at them
