Inboard won't run above 2800 RPM
Check the timing also.

Filter plugged, pinched hose, tank screen clogged, air leaking into suction side of the line before the pump, fuel valve closed partially when the wife hit it putting her beach bag in the bilge. It'll run fast with no load because it doesn't use enough fuel with no load.

The port engine will rev all the way up to 4200/4400 rpm at WOT and will cruise in the 3200-3600 range. The starboard engine maxes out at 2800 rpm and won't go beyond that under load. Both engines rev-up equally in neutral and compression tests were fine. Had the boat hauled and the bottom and running gear are clean. Any thoughts as to where to look for the problem?
