    Question Vent Plug Question?


    I have a Tempest Plus 23P if i have to change vent plugs how do you take the old ones out and how do you put the new ones in?
    Right now there are large plugs in i have to wait till the ice is out to try it.
    I have it on a '90 Ranger 361V with a '04 OptiMax 150hp

    Thanks

    Remove prop. Use small flat screw driver to pinch one of the tabs from inside of prop inward to pry plug. Maybe not best way but works for me

    Try it and see how many rpm's you get before you do anything to the PVS plugs. Your looking for 3500-4000 at take off loaded not light.
