2004 Evinrude 225 Ficht Loss of Power

[Loomis]

Engine will not run past 4800 rpm’s / 45 mph. Starts easily and runs smoothly otherwise. Just will not reach the proper WOT rpm’s & speed. Have had this problem for the last couple months. Boat has been checked out and serviced by two different shops and after extensive testing (compression, injector operation, throttle opening, sensor voltage, controls and linkage, fuel pressure, fuel pressure, vacuum gauges, cylinder drop test etc etc.) they were not able to identify a single issue.

Any Help would be greatly appreciated!

Any answers to this issue? My 2004 225 DI is doing the same thing now. Runs smooth but will not go over 4000 rpm's at WOT. Thanks,

It appears that I am the only one replying on this forum, and unfortunately I retired in 1991 and have no experience pertaining to the Ficht model, sorry. Try that question on the forums of MarineEngine.com & iBoats.com .
