Had my 96 XP on the lake today and about 5-10 mins after putting in, the engine suddenly bogged down and would only move roughly 5mph. I played with the throttle a bit and about 10-20 seconds later it was up and running again like nothing happened. About 5 minutes later the same issue occurred and I fiddled with the throttle again and it ran normally again. At this point, I decided to just take it off the lake in case something more serious began to happen. I am assuming this is a carb issue, but any suggestions are appreciated. Recently, I've also noticed that after the PWC has been running for a couple hours, it can take a couple minutes of cranking the engine to get it started and then about another minute before I can hit the throttle without it dying. This second issue only occurred twice and I hadn't considered it a priority as it only happened after a long time running. I suspect the two separate issues are connected, however, and any suggestions from anyone are welcome and appreciated!
