Hi gang....I'm at my wits end attempting to diagnose the problem. Looking for any advice. I will try to be brief:
Engine: 2017 Yamaha 115 SHO (on a G3 Angler V17SF)
Problem: It starts well and idles smoothly at all RPMs. I can put it in forward (or reverse) gear and cruise slowly with no problems, however when I try to accelerate to higher RPMs it shutters and shakes the whole boat, and I cannot accelerate or get on plane.
What I've tried: it has fresh gas, new fuel filter, new fuel water separator, I removed the charcoal carbon air vent filter and seems to be well vented, the problem also occurs with the gas cap off. I also took off the prop and it looks fine.
The motor ran fine in the fall prior to it's winter hibernation. I believe I winterized it correctly/ per the manual.
Can someone advise if they have had any similar problems, or what they think the problem is with my outboard?
