I have a 2000 Model Volvo Penta 3.0 135h.p and am at a loss. I started this season with a cracked Manifold that I just replaced with a brand new one . Replaced Oil,and Outdrive oil as well. Started with muffs in driveway ran fine. Went to the Lake and started kinda difficult to get going at first as it would kill the engine when i put into gear..figured it was because of it being the first time it was launched this year. After a while of idling and it warming up went into gear just fine . Now for the Puzzle I push the accellerator and it goes just like it should to 3000 RPM will not Plane it should acheive 4800 at WOT cannot get past 3000 RPM I even had the compartment raised while at full throttle to see if something was causing the throttle cable to not open fully . It feels like The shifter is not all the way down or the linkage is outta whack.It Idles fine and in neutral goes to 4800 -4900 rpms fine but not in gear in the water. Any advice would be appreciated.
