When I'm running about wide open on a long run,holding the throttle in the same position and the trim is right ,I have felt the boat speed up and then slow down the rpms seem to stay the same,it feels like its in a bind and then it frees up.Is it running out of fuel? :?:

humm..

Could be a few different things.

Could be dropping & picking up a cyl due to a bad plug, etc

Cold be that the boat has a small bounce & the speeding up is the boat raising out the water more..

There are so many varibles to look at. How often do you use the boat? Could be old gas w/ some water in it. Does it do it only at full throttle or is it just more noticeable there?
