Just wanted to take a minute and say thank you to all who make this site the way it is. Had an issue on the lake the other day, motor would drop down in rpm's at WOT and then back up. I am fairly new to working on outboards, so when I came home I visited here and made a search and started reading.....looks like a fuel delivery problem.....started to make a list........ plugged fuel filter.....bad fuel hoses....bad primer bulb...dirty carb....bad fuel pump....etc, etc. Started searching for replacement parts and rebuild kits for all....so I had some idea of cost of each....went to NAPA for new fuel filter since old one was a NAPA part....went to the lake the next day....problem seems corrected, runs at WOT just as it should......not a major tear down and rebuild, but a first step in my ability to work on an outboard and correct the problem....this site was the reason.......thanks to all....
