Hi,
I have 115 Mariner outboard (98). Need some assistence. I have been having other issues and have worked through a few and made the boat run better.
Currently, I notice an issue only when throttling up and throttling down. When at the speed it runs perfect. No more drops (rpms) at WOT. Only when throttling.
When throttling up here is a hesitation. It takes a second or two to react. (a delay) When you get to the speed it it perfect and runs smooth and flawless. When throttling all the way down, there seems to be like a gurgling or chugging sound. (only when going from speed to no wake) Other than that it runs great. What could that be?
It seems one of the plug wires doesnt seem to snap onto the plug like th others do. What that cause it? a bad connection?
If not what else should I check?
I already cleaned/rebuilt carbs. ( i did not remove the jet in the fuel bowl, but soaked for a while and then ran a wire through them) to clear any buildup.
Changed all filters, running on portable tank with new gas, bulb and lines.
Issue is only when throttling from idle up (hesitation) and throttling down ( gurgling) Other than that it runs great.
I need some help big time!!!
Could that just be the engine?
