    My 95 Yamaha 115 2 stroke is having some bogging issues. Sometimes when running it will only get about 2800 then it picks up and I get 5400 easily. The problem is really intermittent. I know it can be a lot of different problems so hoping someone can point me in the right direction. The motor only has 100 hrs on it and has racor fuel/water separator that is clean. Thanks

    Since it's an intermittent problem, when it does see if your primer bulb is hard, also push the choke in and see if it picks up any speed.

    Let me know

    Thanks creek runner. I ran the boat all day yesterday without any problems. I put some fuel additive, the recommended amout for fuel system clean and checked the fuel water separator which didn't have any water in it. Ran good but I will keep what you said in mind.
