Right now due to a stretched out throttle cable or a adjustment i can not figure out Iam only getting 5300 rpms on my slightly moded 1994 3.0 liter limited edition rude. is it ok to keep running it intell i get it fixed ? 6100 is my redline and i would hate to cause any problems to a motor that i have invested so much in
I just pulled the airbox off and my butterflys are at a 90 degree angle when I put the hot foot to the floor. Does this rule out stretched linkage ? and what should I look for next ? I have had it at 6000 rpms before it sat for awhile so I know my set ups correct and the motor is capable of 6k
Did you use BRP fuel conditioner?
If not, I would check the compression, ignition and then look close at the fuel system.
You have not changed the prop, motor height or added any weight to the boat have you?
I did not use any brp fuel conditioner nor did I raise or lower the motor height nor did I put a different prop on it,
I have checked the compression and did a fire test on all cylinders. they were all good numbers and all cylinders were firing.
Are you using fresh fuel? If you are dealing with fresh fuel, you may have a stuck float, resticted needle jet or something along those lines. If it's set for a year, I'd recommend carb jobs all around.. Make sure the timing is where it should be on wide open throttle. NOT ON A HOSE!!! It must be checKed while in the water or on a test wheel.
