Havent actually had it out on the water yet, just run on the earmuffs in the driveway but she sure does sound nice, changed the plugs & wires, lower unit gear oil,ran a can of seafoam through a portable 1 gallon tank and everything seems good,I am in the process of routing the cables and tach and a few other little things before putting it in the water. Maybe next weekend but who knows? And on top of that the 235 sold already !!

Question for you mechanics....
I have the 1998 175 Ocean pro and put it thru some paces this weekend. Ran about 45 gallons thru her.
Two issues: 1) Hard to start when warmed up. Found I had to set the advanced trottle lever all the way up, then back down to set the timing? advance. This seemed to work fine after many cough and choke attempts to start a warm engine. That and making sure the primer ball was pumped up. 2) When started, will not idle down. Checked the manual and there is no adjustment, contact the dealer? I know you guys have a better answer than that! Overall, loved the boat. Got similar gas mileage to my older 1993 120 hp Evinrude on a much smaller and lighter boat. Runs 30 mph @ 3800 rpm fully loaded. WOT is 4900, 40 mph. Seems about right? Dave C.

quick start
I'm pretty sure your engine should have the quick start feature which automatically adjust the idle at startup it idles high till the engine warms up then it should go down in rpm's,and if the engine is already warm and you start it, it still idles high but then should go back down shortly and I dont think you are supposed to raise the throttle lever to restart that motor could be wrong but I thought i read that in the owners manual will have to doublecheck
