He said he had issues with ethanol jamming up the carbs, got them cleaned out and added a 10 micron filter to solve the problem. Besides the carbs is there anything else I should worry about?

Your know fun. He would need the additional 5 inches so he would have something in the water at WOT.

Well I am back online. Hung the Yamaha yesterday and spent today finishing up the install. All new steering, controls and tach/harness. Only issue was the oil tank hose was 18" short :( so I have the tank sitting on the deck for now, not under the passenger seat where it should be. Took her for a test drive and with 2 POB and full fuel trimmed down I was 5100 RPM's and trimmed out I maxed at 5600 RPM's so I think that the prop is just right. Thanks for all the help looking for motors and walking me through this.

Chris,

i'm glad to hear you got it on and everything is up and running again. thanks for the props again, i have been looking for a spare for a while. on a side note.. i got to look at my enclosure yesterday and the repair shop and start my engine, but the enclosure is coming together and i'm very pleased with it. should have the boat back in 2 weeks is what i was told.

anyway if you ever need any help or a fishing buddy give me a shout because i can be there in 15 minutes for anything. talk to you later, Paul
