outlaw Posted July 8, 2010 Author Posted July 8, 2010 hot weather and e10 would do this iwas thinking the same thing it did it one other time i bought some stabil fuel additive for e 10 hope thats the problem Quote
Super User Wayne P. Posted July 8, 2010 Super User Posted July 8, 2010 Stabil will not improve the performance. Only cooler weather and/or non-ethenol fuel will. Quote
outlaw Posted July 8, 2010 Author Posted July 8, 2010 i also checked throttle cable it had about a quarter inch more to open the butterfly's open all the way and i think my reverse gate needs to be adjusted as well so for completely tearing the boat down and rebuilding it i did alright Quote
