[QUOTE="MarshGrass, post: 232077, member: 3554"] Hello .... I was hoping someone with experience working on smaller HP 2 cycle outboards could help me out. I have a 1988 Johnson 25hp 2 cycle out board (long shaft). The past few days I have noticed than when I slowly throttle up to full speed, about 1/2 way to full speed it feels like the motor is. Either piping out of gear, or losing power to the prop. When thi happens I can still rev the motor to full throttle ....I just get now power. This seems to only happen when I throttle up slowly. If I gun it, the motor get up to full speed ok. What could be happening here? Is it slipping out of gear? Do I need a new impeller? Anyone with any trouble shooting advice feel free to chime in... I also recently had the lower unit oil changed 3 months ago, and had a new prop put on. Thanks in advance for the help! [/QUOTE]
