And if it is a SUZUKI you MUST have it mounted so teh cavitation plate is just below the surface or else you will FRY the engine as they use dual pick-ups(one on the side of the foot and the other is underneath the cavitation plate).

Sounds like RB has his Zukey in the right place then...all this time, I'm sure he does...

I tried droppin' the Johnson...one notch, then two til I ran outta notches...felt like the foot was draggin' bottom...LOL!!...still ran hot, so in my case, it's something else...Dr Spare will get the patient up and runnin'...I goin down to his clinic Sun...and he'll see us 1st thang Mon...
