Greetings....

I have a 2000 115 hp mercury outboard. It has been running great but last time out when I gave it full power out of the hole, it didn't plane like it had been. It seems like it just doesn't have as much power. When I do get it up on plane, the boat doesn't run as fast. I haven't changed how the boat is loaded or trim any differently than I have in the past. In the trouble shooting section of my manual, it said it could be a throttle problem. Any thoughts?

Thanks, JohnnyJoe
