i just wonder if the jack plate slipped a little and let the motor fall some... like i said the boat was running great for probably the last 5 or 6 trips out would plane out great then out of no where last weekend it started taking longer too plane out then wouldn't at all until there was weight shifted to the front of the boat...

I was wondering if it was a power pack... always hear that thrown around when people have the same trouble i'm having....
I had my power pack replaced on my old evinrude last week. The problem I was having is when I would hit the gas to get up on plane it would die. I feel like yours would possibly be doing something similar if it's that, or it could be just on its way out. The best way to know is have the motor hooked up to a computer and if you get a low spark reading that's often what it is. Also I was told when the power pack goes out so do your temp sensors. Had both replaced. You should get a alarm from your temp sensors when they go bad. At least that's what I experienced. Hope I can help with the little knowledge I have, Drew
