Hope I have the correct forum and someone is familiar with this outboard.
Problem I have is the engine surges after running at wide open throttle for 30 seconds. The tach indicates 6,500 rpm which is over revving if the tach is correct. It does not sound as if ignition is completely shut off but power is rapidly reduced and them resumes in under a second. Is this the way a rev limiter would behave?
Does the rev limiter cut ignition or fuel injectors? Why does it take 30 seconds at 6,500 rpm before this happens?
I am asking because I started chasing a fuel starvation problem but perhaps the problem is the pitch of the propeller?
