- 4.3 twins with Cobra drives
I have an 88' 270 with OMC 4.3/Cobra. I was going out for a ride this weekend, started to plane out, and the starboard engine would only rev to 3500 rpm (my normal cruising rpm) that was with the throttle control wide open. The port engine was able to rev much higher. Both engines seemed to run smooth, didn't run warm or anything. When I got back to the marina, the starboard engine would die every time I shifted it into reverse, tried shifting fast, slow, still died.
Changed my spark plugs, cleaned the carb, new fuel filters the beginning of the summer, fresh fuel and startron. Does this sound like a shifter cable adjustment issue?? That is my next try on my next trip up to the boat.. Any other suggestions?? Thanks in advance for any input!:smt021
