Last weekend I accidentally caught a cotton tow rope in the impeller shaft. It wrapped around the shaft and due to it cinching over my foot leaving a nasty burn, I don't remember if it stalled itself or if I shut it down.
After trailering it, I was able to surgically remove the rope from the shaft, afterward it started and seemed to run smooth.
Upon putting it back into the water it has normal thrust requiring a firm handhold at idle, however after getting on it will not produce near enough thrust to plane. The engine will rev up but it will not move any faster than idle speed.
Please help!
Thank you in advance......
