MJ, Hangin that motor today? Lookin forward to some pics.

Re: My motor puked all over it's self!
 

Thanks guys,

I am using the same cables. Here's what we did at the house. Without the motor running I spun the prop by hand to see if it engaged in fwd and reverse. It would not engage into reverse so I adjusted it to where it would. It seems like it is adjusted all the way. With the motor running it goes in and out very nice and smooth, I just want to make sure it's engaged all the way, how do you know?

Shicks PM me your Cell number an i'll call you this afternoon after work just i get off usually around 3:30 to 4 pm. I'll try to tell ya how i adjust them.

Thanks for the call SKools. I took it out yesterday evening and everything seems to be good to go. Here my numbers (from memory)

WOT (playing with the trim) 5200 rpm @ 42 MPH
Cruising : 3500 @ 29 MPH

I can't get over how many differences there are with this newer motor, sweet. I can actuallt talk to my passaenger at wot. Idles great. The only thing I noticed that didn't seem quite right was, when I gunned it (from any speed) it seemed to run a little flat for a just a second then caught up to itself. Anyway, good first run

Way to go Shicks!!...Ya jumped in there and took care of BIDNISS!! 8)...good work, Man ;) ;D...and goin' by the numbers, you're dead on the money w/ that prop ;) ;D...are ya pre-mixin' or usin' the auto-oiler?...

Re: My motor puked all over it's self!
 

if it's flat check the timing retard under flywheel on control cable side make sure it's still hooked up correctly or that it's moving with the throttle. will get pics for ya tomorrow.

Re: My motor puked all over it's self!
 

So Shicks...does this mean you'll be makin' the Hook-Up at OBX this winter? ;D ;D ...

Re: My motor puked all over it's self!
 

If He goes so do I. I might have to look for a ride Transom will be out this winter, but I'm good for gas and beer.

Re: My motor puked all over it's self!
 

RAP,

Right now I would have to say yes to the OBX hookup. But I'm not kidding, the thought of OI makes me nervous, durring the winter especially.

Re: My motor puked all over it's self!
 

Shicks, I completely understand your concern...that's why I said earlier, you'll see me FOLLOWING guys thru the inlet (at least 1st time) who have ''been there, done that"... ;) ;D...hope you'll make it...
