    Default Why would the engine surge at 6mph?



    Was going through the outlet canal and it was surging at slightly faster than the slowest speed..
    Turn up volume so you can hear it as well.
    Any ideas?

    Speed control on? GPS signal blocked by trees?

    Wolfe pointed out mine when we went under Bridge on trinity river

    Either that or anger about going to winter storage

    Does the engine surge when in neutral? Does it have issues at any other speed?

    it may stiil have been on, but i turned it off under way, so it may not have disengaged the ZO.
