" I've got a 98 carburette
" I've got a 98 carburetted honda bf90. The outboard powers a 17' whaler outrage, and has run perfectly for the first two years. However, this last season and again this past weekend, the engine will at times have problems getting above 3500, even with full throttle, and begin to shudder. I'm not towing anything, and only had two people on board at the time. It will still run fine at 1000-2500~3000, but won't go any higher and begins to shudder when I give it more throttle. This doesn't happen all the time, as sometimes 5500 - 6000 can be reached easily and quickly. I've had the tank drained, carb adjusted, and electronic control box changed. Once, just putting it in neutral and giving it a few spurts of high rev throttle (which revs it as normal, straight to 5500 - 6000) brought it back to normal under load. Any other ideas would be greatly appreciated. "
