Thanks for posting the link ..... great info that has put MANY boaters into the hunt against the Top engine builders with "What Too Do" in simple layman's terms.

Its the ignition system thats the problem. If the engine is the Zenoah copy with 2 coils then you can change both coils for genuine Zenoah ones and gain several thousand rpm. If its the engine with a single coil then not much you can do as far as I know.

Hi rabardio

How does yours compare to this one on youtube?

Looks like he just installed a zenoah in it instead of the stock china engine

Yours has the 2 coils. Change them for Zenoah coils and its running good after that.
