I've searched the forum here and have not found quite this problem.
The motor starts easy and idles well. Idles OK when in gear. Runs strong and steady up to about maybe 1/3 to 1/2 throttle. Above that it starts skipping / running rough. Maintains about the same power as at part throttle when it's smoothbut no more.
Occasionally skips at idle also but under part load it runs and sounds very good.
So far on my list is to check the main jets, full throttle timing, and the high tension wires.
All electronics - stator ring, sensor ring, power pack, and all 3 coils are about 3 years old with maybe 50 hours on them.
The powerhead is a fresh overhaul with all accessories transferred from the previous one which ran just fine until it failed with a cracked cylinder sleeve.
What else should I be looking for?
