Im having trouble with my 1968 johnson 65 v4 it idles fine and revs up fine in neutral but once its under load it starts to go but stays below 2500 rpm i rebuilt the carb, replaced the reeds, checked the fuel pump, did a compression test got about 95 on all 4 not sure what to try next, timing? rectifier or amplifier? its seems to run stronger on cylinders 1 and 3 then on 2 and 4 could it just be further carb adjusting??? please help. thanx

Could be carb adjustments, what about spark, strong on all cylinders?
