hello i have a 2004 yamaha fx 140 and it has been running okay the past few summers but this year it stared doing funny things. two weeks ago we ran it kinda low on fuel on the way to put more in it. and it would not rev up at all. well we finally got fuel in it and it ran ok after that but i did noticed that it would only rev to about 8300 rpm. and it sucked a full tank of gas in about an hour and a half. so get home and put new plugs in it and there gapped at .32 like it calls for went out last night and it was sluggish from a stop and would only hit about 43 45 mph at about 8600 rpm. and it went through a full tank of gas in a bout an hour of ride time. Is there a fuel filter in it some where were i might have plug it a little or any ideas, the air filter is in good shape. and nothing looks like it is getting pinched any where, the prop is in good shape with no dings of any sort the shaft is straight and nothing around it.
I'm stumped and dont reallly have the money for the shop just bought a house. so any ideas i haven't thought of would help before i do have to take it to the shop lol.
Thanks alot guys and gals.
