8hp Yamaha Won't run just above idling speed at full throttle

[publicbar]

Hi,

I have a yamaha 8 hp (around year 2000) and was wondering what I should check to fix this.
I know it will be simple and that its just a case of tunning something ?

Any tips or advice would be appreciated.

thanks,
Chris.

Hi,

Thanks for the replies, its a 2 stroke.
I'm not a mechanically minded however I can usually work stuff out
with a manual in front of me. Would you know if I can download a detailed
manual with labelled diagrams of the engine ?
I did download the manual but Its not very detailed.
The engine is a 2001 model.

cheers,
