Now that my landie is sorted, launched "lazy daze" at Cullercoats at high tide and shot off to the wreck east of yellow can. Fishing lug, had eight pouting, all a decent size and all returned alive. Got 3 cod, best about 5.1/2lb, 3lb, 2lb.
On the way back in, gave the engine some welly to see if the problem of limited revs was still present. Pushed throttle lever hard forward, wow, shot up to 5.1/2 thousand revs, but didn't keep it there as it was a bumpy ride as the sea chop was getting up, so hopefully it's sorted.:)

Couple of pics from today. wish i could get the smiling right on self timer:D

Hi Paul, yes, I read your report and left a message for you. The problem I had sounds rather similar to yours, engine would start and run fine up to 3-1/2 thousand revs, but drag back if I tried to push it any further. Today it must have cleared itself. Yeh, the fishing was slow today fishing over the top of the tide when it was pretty slack. Arthur
 
Hi Ivan, have you been out lately, just, when reading Pauls outboard probs, he mentioned that you had posted a similar problem.

No not been out of late but looking at getting out this weekend the outboard problems is on a mates engine mine is sweet as a nut so weather permitting will be hopefully pulling them over the tubes;)
