I recently went to lake, Motor started up on first crank. But I'm only getting partial power. Seems to me that motor is running only on one power head. Previous time on water, everything ran extremely well. What are some trouble shooting tips?

First check compression and spark and get back to us. Both tools are fairly cheap at auto parts store. Should get the spark to jump 7/16 of an inch with a strong blue zap!! Compression should be around 100 psi and even on all cylinders, within 10 percent. Let us know what you find and can go from there.

Fast, That motor may have a shift assist module and the SLOW System. Both of these kill the spark to the port cylinders. If you do not have spark on the port side, you might disconnect the shift assist switch and see what happens.
