Hi there, I have a 1986 dt140 Suzuki
On a 16 ft bowrider.
The motor has great compression and fires up no problem.
Idles perfect and revs up perfect out of gear. No misfiring or anything.
Once I put it in gear and plane out the boat the motor does not rev up to full throttle. It feels like it's half throttle or so.. I have the trottle arm all the way down and it seems to lack power. I have tried trimming the motor up without any change.
Every now and then the motor will instantly red to full throttle but then back down again a second later.
New plugs are in the motor. New gas coming from a clean Jerry can.
Does anyone know what would be causing this?
Thank you for any suggestions and help in advance
