7.5 evinrude throttle problems..

[.:Crosby:.]

the motor..7.5 rude not sure exact year 80's i would guess
the problem..when i twist the throttle handle it will only rev up so far then it feels like it slips. i can take the cover off and push the throttle to WOT and hold pressure on the throttle handle and it will stay at WOT for a little while, but then feels like it slips back down slowly. The tiller handle has a throttle cable, not a solid rod, of that helps any. preciate the help!
