Hello
I just bought a 35hp evinrude that only ran while the choke was on. I took the carb off and soaked for 4 hrs in cleaner and then blew out everythng with compressed air. I also changed all the fuel lines on the motor. I took the boat out and it ran great up until i got it to just over half throttle. the motor began to hiccup every 6 to 8 seconds but would keep running. At wot throttle the motor would hiccup every 3-5 seconds but keep running. Compression at 119 and 118 for each cylinder. The boat was going about 22 mph at wot pushing a 14 ft alumacaraft that weighs about 500 lbs. Any ideas what may be causing the motor to hiccup at higher speads??
Thanks,
Chris
