Re: new engine
 

i have had to have the engine replaced 2 times before it ran "o.k" i was told that when there computer did it it did not put a cylinder in and i was only running on 3 and the second time they just told me a computer glitch but i am tired of computer made engines and that always being their excuce but from what my mechanic has told me it is might be 3 new engines!!! so i don't think they have gotten any better i replaced the engine just 6 months ago.

i ran the boat tosay and got a top speek of about 36 knots according to my gps in a light chop with no trim the accelaration is still a little slow but the top end is very good i need to look in to the prop and i am going to have a new water pump in as well. i might have tham look at the out srive ratio like macjoe menitioned but for now i am happy but its that darn ethanol fuel that is causing all this i hate it

Re: new engine
 

Good deal! 36 kts is about 41-42mph ;)
