Yep. Sat there and helped do it with the mechanic.

Thank you. I did have the everything in the water pump kit replaced when they put on the impeller. I'll check the tell tale. I forgot to include that I had the water passages in the block...

Had a significant power loss both at initial acceleration and top end. Ran compression. Top 4 cylinders tested at 104. Bottom 2 tested at 92. Should I be...

It's already there. In fact, my Evinrude mechanic and I went for a ride yesterday. He thinks I may have 1 or more failed fuel recirculation valves causing the cylinders to load up with fuel. Ever...

Hey Champ:
A couple weeks ago I posted about my motor having a loss of power and having 1 cylinder compression test a little low. Pulled the heads,...

I've been told about the "weed washer", but have ran a 25 renegade in the past without it on there. Not sure if it really has any bearing on the performance of the prop. Sure someone knows if...

Already ordered all the parts. Always use authentic parts. Any specific decarb solution that you recommend?

Hey guys:

Ive been having some performance issues with my intruder. Could only get 4800-4900 RPMs and GPS only 48-50 mph. Put...

I've got a 97 stratos PE with a 175 Rude Intruder. I'm wanting to put on a jack plate, as I do not have one. How many inches set back would be recommended and what manufacturer would you all go...

Compression is fine 102-105 on each cylinder. Just had the timing checked. Guess I'll go ahead and replace the fuel lines. Thats the easiest place to start. Thanks.

Had it 6 years. Basically lost speed quickly. Plugs are new. Throttle plates are opening perfectly (perfectly parallel). Fuel lines will be replaced, but are still firm, not spongy. No alarms,...

Thanks for all the previous info for trying to regain the top end speed. I have always run a 24 Raker and been happy with...

I finally had a chance to look at a few things. I happened to check, again, and make sure that the throats were opening properly and noticed that I could see the gasket behind the manifold bunched...

The bowls were replaced about 2 months ago. I had already checked the jets. All are seated and snug.

97 stratos 285 PE. No jack plate. I'll measure prop to pad when I get home. Prop is a Raker 14.5 x 24. Been running it for 4-5 years. Normally turning about 5600 rpms, GPS around 62-64 mph.

A few weeks ago, I posted a question about not being able to get the top end out of my motor listed above. I have replaced the roller on the...

Thanks Championman:

It has the roller on, but it looks like it's been replaced with one that is not thick enough to completely open the throats of the carbs (still can open more with the throttle...

I've been to that area. Very nice, and yes, theres a lot to do. Any recommendations on cabins?

I need some input.....My wife wants to take summer trip up to Wisconsin next summer. I grew up going up with my family, but I'm not sure I want to go back to where I went as a kid. My wife has...

Thanks. My mechanic is stopping by later tonight. Hopefully it's something easily repaired.
