Ive got a 35 hp surface drive, 128 hrs on the motor and have never done anything but change oil, new plugs, new big blade prop and clean air filter. It is on a 1854 excel. When i try to take off the motor bogs down and doesnt want to take off. After a second it clears out and is good to go. With 3 people it does it even worse, with 4 it wont even get plained out. Today i took it out and hit 27 with me and another guy in the boat. The top end is great but as far as getting out of the hole its got nothing. Anyone have any advice or helpful tips of what i need to do?

Thanks cory carter

might be due for an check/adjustment on the valves. Just an idea.

Sounds pretty normal to me.
