" I have a 1985 VRO 50hp Johns
" I have a 1985 VRO 50hp Johnson. The VRO is disconnected and I mix oil. Last fall the motor wouldn't start and a friend of mine said a float was stuck..and fixed it. Now, it starts fine, idles great, revs in neutral...but when I put it in gear it only goes 7mph full-throttle. It still sounds like it's running fine, but just won't go fast. I checked the butterly valves on the carb and they're both opening completely at full throttle (w/o the engine running). The weird thing to me is that it will rev up high in neutral, but I'm not sure how this correlates once it's in gear. Any ideas? "
