re: the bucking. Does it feel like you hit a submerged log? Sometimes what gets described as bucking turns out to be a clutch dog problem in the lower unit. The bucking is actually the engine slipping out of geat…and then immediately re-connecting. Worn cluth dog and/or gears…or if you’re lucky…just a linkage adjustment.
Or; if you’re **really lucky** it’s not gear related at all…but more what the other guys are describing as a lean sneeze.
Hope you’re really lucky lol….
