So thanks for the help, just glad it was something simple.

To get off topic a bit, I was hitting about 33 mph per gps, don't have a tach so I can't tell what rpm it's at but does that seem a bit slow for a 140 on this boat?

A tad slow. Get a tach on it and make sure it is topping out around 5700-5900 RPM's. The 140 likes to turn up some RPM's to run the best, and wil lactually guzzle fuel if you overprop it.
