Will try again tomorrow to take a picture. Too busy catching fish today to take one. LOL

:thumb up2:

Thanks. I did run it in and out a time or two. I called HB and they told me that it sounded like a damaged puck or whatever their term for the 360 ducer is. I told them it wasn’t damaged. They...

I installed a Mega 360 on my boat yesterday. Hooked it to a Solix 12 G2. Updated the software and went to the lake. When I started using the 360, the factory default distance was 80’. I could...

I can't say for sure if the jack plate helped the porpoising issue or not. The jack plate did help the ride and handling of the boat in rough water.

The Laser II prop was bought from a prop...

Me too, thanks!

With the jackplate.

For those of you who have followed my saga, MY BOAT FINALLY RUNS GREAT!

I am a member of an AL hunting forum and the members there recommended talking with William Bush at Huntsville Prop Sales...

Thanks for the replies. bluebonnet, I'm gonna need a little more details on what your talking about, or at least an interpreter. LOL If you're talking about a hole shot plate, I already have a...

I decided to start another thread instead of continuing the one about my motor problems. Those are fixed. Now I've got to get my jack plate tuned in. I need more bow lift. I don't know if a jack...

Maybe so. I've currently got the motor in it's highest hole and it's high enough that it's trying to blow out while turning, so I may not, but Good Lord willing, I'll find out this afternoon. Today...

We didn't have church yesterday evening so I put the 20 pitch prop back on and ran the boat. It runs great, again. I do think I need to drop down to a 19 pitch prop because it turns 5400 RPM's at...

I've had an Ulterra since mid March. I've been on the water around 30 times since then. I could not be happier with it. About 3 weeks ago I took the foot pedal off and put it in a compartment...

If you notice in what I wrote earlier, I said after doing the decarb I was going to change the plugs again.

After doing the decarb the plugs were shiny and looked new again, but I still changed...

Very true.

I pulled the plugs to do a leak down test on each cylinder and they were all wet and black. I know that's causing some of the issues. When I positioned the flywheel at TDC1, I could...

Yes, externally and internally. Everything is opening wide open.

I removed the flywheel this morning thinking it could be a sheared woodruff key but that was not an issue. That all looked great....

I'm not a prop expert but a spun prop should give me more RPM's and less speed. I'm getting lower RPM's and less speed.

That's why I took the new lower off to verify the gear ratio by turning the...

Thanks for the reply. It doesn't really act up, it just has no power with the 20 pitch prop. Not out of the hole, mid range or top end. With the 17 pitch prop it runs great. Good hole shot, good...

Long story but I'll try to hit the highlights with all the pertinent info.

Bought a boat last fall. It's got a 1998 Yamaha 115 V4 2 stroke on it. The boat is an Xpress H56 with Hyper lift hull. I...

Worst case scenario.... Removing the seat and using a hose clamp will fix it permanently.

bulldog, I installed the WP gauge myself. It's about as simple of an install as anything I've ever done. If you decide to install yours yourself, message me and I'll send you a picture of where to...

Thanks for the advice. That's the smart money, but I'm hardheaded. LOL I'm going to run it again, after cleaning the carb and adding a hole shot plate and see what it does before I take the jack...

I think it’s the jack plate too. I’m going to clean the carbs, fabricate and add a hole shot plate tomorrow and raise the motor to the upper hole on the jack plate and see if that helps. The boat...

[QUOTE=mikesxpress;9335213]Your trying to do too many mods at once and you have not stated a baseline of your intial performance before you did anything.

Did you speak to Xpress about the...

I checked compression after I got back in today and all 4 were the same. I also started taking the carbs off. I've got a water seperator filter on my boat but something got in a carb while I was...
