Bad gas?
 

I have a brand new 225 Yamaha hpdi. Recently went to Toledo and filled up over there and my motor seemed like it just lost some horsepower. Max speed went down to bout 50mph from 70. Motor is not missing and starts right up. Any suggestions on what it could be?

You dont drive a yellow and white skeeter do you ?

No grey skeeter. Why

Did you hit your prop on the boat ramp or sand/gravel bar?? That will make a ton of differences in speed. Also is it just top end speed or is your hole shot hurting to??

No don't think so. Just takes while to get on plain and won't go over 50mph. Just wondering if bad gas could do that to it or am I looking at bigger problem.

Do u have a power pole and have you ever fished vernon lake ?

If so, i may know what the problem is and I know alot about that style of boat. I'll come over to help figure out the problem if you dont mind.

No power pole. Guess I'm going to take to shop in morning. Still under warranty. Just wondering if anyone had ideas what it could be

no problem. See this post below for more information on why i had so many questions....http://www.saltycajun.com/forum/show...ight=sunk+boat

found out today from boat shop that some oil rod was not on inside motor causing the oil to just flow freely causing plugs to foul hence making boat run slower . said it was prolly like that when i bought it. damn the bad luck. now got to take to skeeter shop to fix bilge. whats that saying about the 2 best days of owning a boat???

Lol. At jordon.

Jordon on the hunt!

Jordan is one of the nicest guys you'll ever meet. But I feel sorry for the person who's responsible for flipping him when he finds them.
