    what should I look for

    Don't know if I need to worry or not.

    The past two times I have gone out I had a little hick-up with the throttle.
    After a rider goes down I would slow the boat to idle, turn and then throttle up to return to the rider. When I throttle back up the motor would kinda bog down for a sec. the first time it did it I almost didn't notice it. Today it did it agian and the see dealer light flashed and then went away when I pulled the throttle back to idle.

    From then on I tried to make it do this and it wouldn't . Like I said, it has done this once the past two times I have gone out. I don't know what could be causing this. The only thing I could think of is the fuel filter. I was not planning on changing it till this winter. Think it could cause this to happen?
    Thanks

      check fluid levels in everything. low fluid level could be causing the light to come on but not sure if the engine would bog unless it is trying to go to limp mode. The guys on here will chime in a get you headed n the right direction. Good Luck

        If it were trying to go to limp mode it would flash limp mode. I have never seen one do that unless it was overheating. That is not the case here. I am changing fluids tomorrow so I guess I will see if it does it again the next time I go out.

          I wonder if your throttle sensor has a bad spot in it.

            How would I check that. Just to clarify, it almost feels like when I would throttle up it was running out of gas. Both times, it only lasted for a sec. and then never did it again.
