After my johnson 50 warms up it drops to half throtle.I thought it might be a coil so I changed it out,same thing runs like a scalded dog until it warms up.Anybody else experience such joy?
How warm does it get? The laser aimed remote temperature sensors make this easy, but if you drip some water on and it turns to steam instantly you are too hot. Sometimes the thermostat can stop opening completly or a water passage in the engine can be partially clogged. If it does it abruptly a coil is possibly breaking down.
