  • Running 1/2 speed

    I have a 2008 TLR50. On my last trip it ran at about 1/2 speed (2900 RPM) and then after about 3 hours it suddenly took off and ran perfectly. I checked the fuel connection, the water pump outlet, and the choke assembly and all were OK. Any Ideas? Thanks

    sounds like dirty carbs and I personally would rid of the quick fuel connect

      You've got water in your fuel. The water settles to the bottom and that's where the pickup is. It ran good after 3 hours because that's how long it took to get to clean fuel rather than water/fuel mixed...
      90 Yami on a 16' Sea-N-Sport. Rides smooth as silk when the water turns to a sheet of glass.
