Good evening.
New user here in need of some help.
Due to a marriage separation, my boat sat for 1.5 years. The good news is that we have reconciled. The bad news was a blah day on the water.
Before stored, treated remaining gas. Always flush motor after use. Yadda yadda.
Before taking her out, replaced lower unit oil and did a water pump/impeller replace because she wasn't peeing as hard as she should, and after owning for 5 years, haven't ever done it.
Starts, runs, idles like a champ. Then throttle up on the water, getting only 2700 rpms. No misfiring or sputtering, just no power. No warning lights or signals.
EMM was replaced by previous owner 6 years ago. I have the paperwork, and he was my uncle. Never ever had a single issue with this motor til now.
Compression is good, but I only cleaned the plugs, not replaced them. Could it be that simple?
All help is appreciated. I miss my boat and need to get out too the reefs!
