Recently bought a 1986 Bayliner Capri with the 125 Force on it. I could only get it to go to 4000 RPMs. After looking in the book it says that operating range is from 4500-5500 rpms. I had a friend who is a boat mechanic try to fix that as well as adjust the idle for me. Took it back out yesterday and it still only goes to 4000 rpms but now it wont go into reverse either. With the hood off the motor at WOT there is still more play in the cable. I've checked it out in the book and now its as clear as mud. What should the RPMs be at WOT? How do I adjust the throttle cable and the shifter cable?
