Try some OMC decarbonizer, unless it's an old engine that's never been decarbonized before.

Well boat top out 37 mph thats 5 mph slower than what it use to do back in the 90 's  I hit the choke at top speed and the motor would pick up Rpm and hold the rpm before the day was gone it didn't need the choke to top out but still wasn't quit there still may need High test gas  to gain the 5 mph that it use to do.

Thanks for the reply Swampy

RIDE FOR THE KIDS I'll be there 840 AM Main and I45  Looking for Red Dragon I better go to sleep now just a bit more Trailor E-load Well One of the roller fall off on lauch and two more when I went to unlauch I found two out of the three  I used a rag on the missing one I got the boat on the trailor ok but the rag wasn't in the place It needed to be in so I got under the boat on dry land and lifted it up just enough to place the rag in the right spot after I did that I couldn't believe I did that Well I guess there was a bit of adrenaline rush  Man Morning coming on fast got to go to bed. See Ya tommorrow at th Ihop.

Good night to all and may you have a good night!

Swampy,

Put some Seafoam into the gas tank, too. It will help clear out the crud. We always dump some into our boat's tank and it really seems to help it run smoother.
