[QUOTE="Incahiker, post: 187721, member: 4777"] Hey all... finally was able to get to the lake and try out the motor again after the seafoam treatment... Seemed to be doing much better and I deep creep shocked it in the lake under load and it was screaming... very nice. I put the cowl back on the motor and it bogged down on full throttle again, took the cowling off and it was screaming. Obviously it is getting much more air with the cowling off, what is going on? Can anyone pin point what the problem might be. Ran it with the cowling off the whole time and it was defintely running really good and going as fast as a little 4hp can run. As soon as I put the cowling on it would bog down on full throttle, definitely not getting enough air. Seemed like there is a tiny air vent on the top rear of the cowling, and it was not obstructed. Wonder what it is? If anyone has any suggestions that would be great [/QUOTE]
