    I added more water to my test barrel and tried running
    the MK5 again. That was NOT the problem. Something is
    still slipping when the throttle is any higher that "Start"
    position. I’m not so sure the neutral spring is adjust
    correctly. When idling and shifted into neutral, I see
    no change in the agitation in the barrel, nor hear
    a change in RPMS. Have said service bulletin now,
    so will play some more before I tear it back apart.

    Prepare to be boarded!
