    Prop ?

    Need some help. Ran a 25p tempest today everytime I get to 3500 rpm my rpm would shoot up to 5300 and boat would never come on plane. Almost acted like I had spun hub. Out my 25p fury back on and it ran fine. Anyone know what could be wrong with the tempest. Pvs hole open on both props

    I had the same problem with my 24p Tempest on my 225 Merc 2-stroke. I added one large plug and it fixed my holeshot dramatically. I am amazed at how one large plug can make such a huge difference.
