    PRM's jumped up this weekend

    1990 Johnson 200 GT
    I added a can of seafoam to my tank of gas this weekend and added a wp guage to my motor. When I took her out Saturday to run her, she started out running fine but after stopping to fish for about 30 minutes things changed. We cranked up to leave and I noticed that the motor was surging and at WOT my RPM's jumped about 800 to 1000 RPM's. Could this be the seafoam making it run at a higher RPM or should I let a mechanic look at it?

    Thanks Witchdoctor!

    If it blew all that carbon out wouldn't it have picked up some speed?
