Hi everyone, I have my 35 running but
I don't have full throttle from the three position
Lever on the motor. Won't go to fast position to fully
Open carb, I can manually open carb by
Pulling the carb linkage open, I must be missing
An adjustment, it maybe simple, thanks for the help,

Rick

Are you trying it in gear? It won't go full throttle in neutral.

I was in neutral! In a drum of water, I think you hit it,
Is there a reason for that, I will put in gear, figured it was
Something easy,

Thanks

It is so the rpms do not run away without any load on the motor. No go kaboom....

There's also an auto cut-out switch on there, should be on the port side with a single vacuum hose and a black wire leading to it. The black wire shorts out one magneto if it over revs.

If you don't already have an owners manual, you'll probably find this helpful. (I know I have.)
