Just picked up a merc 70 h.p. thunderbolt, heard their decent motors. Well previous owner stated started fine but had no kick. Took it out and runs smooth but only about 10 mph. When I held the choke button in motor speed up to about 20 mph smoothly. Should I change fuel tank, check fuel filter, When I gave it full throttle seemed to back down? can anyone help, always had a johnson.
