I just bought a 2018 Regal 2300 w/350-V8 Volvo Penta. It jump very quickly from 0 to 3500 rpm’s but from 3500 to 5000 rpm is just a click on the throttle. Is there an easy adjustment for this?
Thanks

What throttle type is it? Can you send an engine serial number and/or photo of the dashboard?
 
Throttle calibration is pretty straightforward for this:
Press and hold the N button on the lever for 6 seconds
Put the lever into forward idle. Press and release N
Put the lever all the way forward. Press and release N
Reverse idle, N
Full reverse, N
Back to neutral, N
One more press of the N
Test and see if it’s improved!
