2000 Merc opti dfi 225. recently having a tough time getting out of the hole. when i engage the hotfoot, engine seems to be struggling for gas. At the first few hole shots, seems to get more sluggish to get on plane with each successive hole shot. Takes anywhere from 10-20 seconds for engine to put out power to get on plane. Put motor on mercury software, no issues found. Compression tested fine. Plugs changed recently. Running all the mercury additives and startron. Never an issue prior. Mechanic suggested it could be fuel injectors...
Any other suggestions to troubleshoot before getting into tearing donw the injectors and sending out for cleaning/repair/replacement option?
thanks for any help & suggestions.
