Have the above motor and am having some performance issues. The motor will run fine through full range. I'll stop to fish an area and then re-start to move and get sluggish results. It will surge and then run at only 75% of full RPM. If I punch it from idle I'll get some slight sputtering before it opens up. It will run @ 4000 rpm, run up to 5000 and then start to bog again. I've replaced the fuel filter and plugs. Have also checked compression and spark and all appear fine. I ourged all the old gas and re-filled the tank with fresh fuel. It runs fine at full load sometimes but is inconsistent. I plan to get it in to be looked at but could use some insight on possible issues.
