My starboard throttle is off by a good inch or so (more throttle) from the port when at cruise, engines sync'd. This has always happened when I haven't run the boat in a while but has gotten better after running it for a while, within a half inch after on plane for 20 min or so. This past weekend after about 6 hrs of running it didn't change. Fuel filters are new, or maybe I should say newer, about 2.5 months, 15hrs ago. The starboard engine also acts like it is starving for fuel at 3700+ rpms and starts dropping by 2-300 rpms until pulled back to 3500 then it smooths out. Are these issues related or is there an adjustment in the throttle levers? I'm not sure if I am having to actually give more throttle to the stbd engine to keep up with the port, how would I tell if so.
My props were tuned back in March and as far as I know, I have not hit anything. My diver says everything looks good, clean bottom but a little hard growth on the running gear that was able to be cleaned off which he did early Dec. Any suggestions?
