Agree with Bruce, check the change or boil out the exhaust elbow

Of course it is tough to remotely diagnose but those pesky exhaust restrictions cause overheating and loss of performance. It seems that only in forward is the engine under full load. I am assuming no prop pitch change recently. I used to take my volvo exaust elbow to the radiator shop ever 2 years and replace every 4 years.
