Hey everyone! I am a new member and very glad to be part of such a great community! We purchased our first Yamaha this summer (2022 212S) and so far we've been really pleased with it. I have a question about RPM difference at WOT and throttle split. The boat just came out of the 10-hour service. On the last outing prior to the service, I achieved about 7400 RPM on the Port side engine and about 7100 RPM on the Starboard side engine at WOT. I asked the dealer if they could look into that and they said it was probably just a throttle cable adjustment. Yesterday, first time out after the service, I got about 7540 RPM on the port side and 7230 on the starboard side. I also had a pretty decent throttle split above 7000 RPM. In addition, above 6000 RPM, if I release the throttles, the port side wants to inch back and drops about 500RPM while the starboard throttle seems to stay where it's put. I know, being mechanical connections, the throttles are never going to be perfectly matched. This just seemed a bit excessive and especially with the starboard side running so much lower. Is this pretty normal for these engines or is there something else I need to look into? Thanks!
**Photos show the starboard side pretty much at WOT and maxing out at close to 7200 RPM with the port side not quite to WOT with another 100-200RPM left to go **
