A few questions......a few things going on.....motor has been sitting inside for a while, but basically a brand new engine..has maybe 2 years on it.....replaced plugs, lower unit grease....had to replace service valve on primer solenoid due to it leaking..
Finally after fixing the leaky lever....got it to idol pretty good while hooked up to water. Took it to the lake yesterday....took a while to get started but got to running it up and down the lake and noticed its running a high on the rpm at full throttle...around 6000, prop is a 24 and does has some dings in it...overall the egine did great.....hot foot is not working really well, seems like it may need some lube to it, its not very responsive and will stick....also noticed after a while when coming off of plane, the motor would sometime die....would this be a vro issue? Losing prime???
Need a little help
