Hi everybody, my name is Witold and hello from New Zealand
My Mercury two stroke 1988 year serial no.0B373318 80hp cant go more than 3000rp over load.
Last time when i was fishing boat suddenly slow to 3000rpm, when i came back and open engine cover i notice that plastic clip what hold two control wire was open...so i put it back and close, meanwhile was knockdown in New Zealand, so i changed water pump impeller because i had plenty of time...
Today i was on water and noticed that i cant go over 3000rpm... when i lifted engine above water i was able to do max rpm... I was sure that it was because of open plastic clip what holds control wires and accelerator wire cant be pulled to 100%... but it looks that issue is still
Engine starts and goes as usually...
I read some tips in google and i going to change fuel filter and clean carburetor, any advises whats different can be issue?
I read about safety neutral switch that can be source of problem as well? I have got quicksilver control...
I spend 5 years in car mechanic school 20 years ago so maybe I will be able to check it yourself...
Thank you for help, and greetings from New Zealand!
