My son took out my old 1978 Cobia with 150 hp evinrude yesterday and was experiencing some high RPM at wide open. I have the same prop I have always had. He said hole shot was the same. Does this sound like a spun hub in prop or can something else cause these high rpms. He also said motor alarm beep beep beep while turning these rpms. I have a replacement 1984 powerhead with vro which oil side is disabled. I mix oil with gas. Any ideas what might be going on here. He only over reved it for few seconds and alarm went off when he dropped rpms in safe range. Any ideas whats up with this? Thanks
