Generally they overfuel the engine which causes a decrease in RPMs, or causes the RPMs to hold steady at that value. So, it is considered a soft limiter. You will feel the engine stop pulling, but it shouldnt cause the bow to drop or anything nasty to happen.How will the motor react when i hit that limiter? I put a small 26" bravo xs on the boat and am wondering what will happen when i hit the limiter. With being new to the boat i am a little nervous what will happen. I am hoping for a controlled decrease in power rather than a complete throttle dump.
