78 seems fast, for sure. However, I made a prop change this past weekend and I'm seeing some pretty good numbers. I tested these props back to back, same loads and conditions. Air temp was 60, so...

That’s what I’m hoping for... more room, storage and comfort while fishing.

Looks like I'm switching teams. I just bought a new 2021 Z20, it's being rigged this week and I'll have it next week. I sold my '94 Champion 204 w/2008 Evinrude E-Tec 250 HO, it's being picked up...

Unfortunately, we changed the plug wires.

I’ll check with them tomorrow.

No we don’t have the answer, that’s why I’m here. We know the problem. We can’t find the cause. They replaced all the coils and no change. Seems like something is grounded to the block, but we...

Yes, it’s been run indoors and the arcing is obvious

It is on all coils... it’s arcing on both sides between the coil bolts.

The issue started as a slight miss at around 800 rpms, but it would go away once on pad. Then, it started to rob the engine of top end power... now the miss is always there, but only there under...

Took me, and several others, most of the summer to figure out why my “new to me” 1994 204 was virtually uncontrollable over 55mph. I’m running a 2008 evinrude etec 250 HO... A lot of people said I...

.

There’s an idea, thanks I’ll look into it.

Yeah, I have all gen3 helix electronics. I was considering the nmea, makes sense.

So I have a 2008 Evinrude Etec 250 HO with under 200 hours on my 94 Champion. I love the boat! Only issue I have is if I run the boat over 4,000 rpm for over 4 or 5 minutes, I get a overheat alarm....

thanks for all the help...

I'm considering going with the Rx4 24p. Any thoughts on that prop?

I'm looking for a 4-blade option for my boat. Currently have a 24 pitch Raker, which doesn't have a lot of grab and hole shot.

Finally, got the new lake house closed and got the 204 in the water and on the lift. I've been using it now for about 3 weeks and I'm really enjoying it. A couple observations...

This board is such a great resource. I’m planning to change my carpet this fall and I was going to ask this exact question. Good stuff.

i look forward to getting the boat to the point where I can play with the prop.

That’s great news to me... I’d much rather deal with chine with control of the boat. I also agree with your statement about being a few hours away from needing to wake it up. I’m a “turn one dial...

Matt,

The prop is a 14x24 raker. I’m dropping the motor to the second notch Monday or Tuesday. Do you have any take on the severe torque steer?

Also, if you plan to be on the water anytime...

Pat,

Thanks, I totally understand your explanation, makes perfect sense to me. You’re right, I’ve been doing a lot of research on the subject and most people are saying drive through it.

I...

Ok, so I hear you guys. I checked the pad to prop and it's 2.5", which seems to be a little high, correct?
The proper is a 14x24 Raker.
As Pat suggested - I will pick up a torque tab to address...

They just don't make them like that anymore, regardless of what they cost...[/QUOTE]

It doesn’t have a jack-plate and don’t a prop to pad measurement, but I’ll get it. One issue I didn’t...
