I've been having some engine problems hoping someone can help point me in the right direction.
So recently I've noticed my EFI seems to be running rough and is lacking power.
It always starts right up at the beginning of the day but seems to be running rich. It smokes more then it should and shakes pretty bad at idle. (I premix the engine 50/1)
After I run it for a bit I sometime have to advance the throttle to get it to start but not always
When I'm fishing tournaments and have my livewells full with a coangler it wont plane out unless my Co gets on the front deck. When I'm by myself it'll plane out but it still takes a minute. I'm running a 25p tempest plus. It seems like its getting worse and worse. When I first mounted the engine on the boat (a 2002 procraft superpro) it would jump right out of the hole.
It also seems to be lacking power on the top end. I'm only seeing 5100-5300 RPM and I can barley hit 60mph by myself and 57 with my Co.
I recently checked the compression with 3 different compression gauges and it was 125 on all cylinders.
I also changed the plugs and fuel filter. The plugs definitely looked like it was running rich. Once I changed the plugs it idles a bit better and started better after running but didn't help the planing or top end.
Any ideas on what it might be? I'm thinking maybe injectors need to be flowed or reeds possibly? Thanks for the help guys
