I have a 1977 Johnson 70HP loop charged outboard.....Recently While on the water I was at Full throttle while on my way back to the docks. I came down off of full throttle to go past a few fishermen and after 40 or 50 yards past them I again began to accelerate back to Full throttle.....I achieved WOT for about 15 seconds when I suddenly lost power and could barely even plain out....I've Checked the prop hub (tho this wouldnt be the issue because there was no slippage) and did a compression test and all the cylinders came back between 80 and 90 psi. What Could my issue be if its not a dead cylinder?
