I have a 2004 Yamaha Waverunner XLT1200. Took it out this season and it ran fine for a good hour or so. Then while making a turn, the engine bogged down and would only move at slow speeds between 10-15 mph. When I give it throttle the rpms do not go above 4, and the engine sounds as if its going to stall, but never does. We first thought it was a clogged fuel filter. So we replaced it and it worked for a day. Then the bogging down started happening again. I took the waverunner into Yamaha. They checked everything, but weren't sure what it was. There only guess was the carbs, and that it would be an expensive job.
Has anyone had this problem?
Also I believe its a fuel issue. I've noticed that when I release the gas cap, there is a large amount of pressure and the vapors being released actually whistle. Is that normal?
