    What should PSI be on '99 Ficht 225?

    Was out today and mine was around 25psi at 5400 rpm. Is that about right?

    I was told to keep it at not less than 20 psi @ WOT. Watch during turns too...you can lose your water pressure during turns if you have the motor set too high. If I run my jackplate low I run a little over 25 psi, but as I raise it I'll gain speed all the way until I start to lose water pressure.

    Don't think I've ever seen one too high. Seen plenty too low.
