Hi there, sorry if I have posted something commonly posted but so far I did not find anything.
All of a sudden yesterday, while at 3/4 power the engine dropped down to around 2000rpm and will never rev any higher since.
- Plenty of oil in both tanks
- No alarms
- Plenty of water through the telltail and water temp is all ok
- I rebuilt the fuel pump a few weeks ago and has been working perfectly since
- Attempting to rev from control box or control lever with couling off results in the same issue
- Fuel filter replaced recently
- Starts ok without any throttle
- Idles ok initially but I would say that it does stall after a little while idling now
V-140 2.5lt Carb
Serial 1V041534
Model 1140422DF
It is possible this engine has a high rev protection that may have malfunctioned ? It's wierd how it starts fine and runs fine (I can motor around but only up to 2000 revs) but simply wont rev high. I could always rev high in neutral also but that also is limited too.
cheers
Mark
