    2015 BFP60A

    My old prop on this motor was 14X9 and very worn and corroded and some small chips around the edges. Motor would run WOT at 5200RPM. I then bought a new Honda prop 13.8X9 and now the WOT is 5900 RPM and pushes the pontoon and additional 3MPH. Was 17MPH now 20MPH at the recommend RPM. A...

    Honda 50 prop size

    Shouldn't you consider the RPM range? I have a BFP 60A and the existing 14X9 (Old corroded, chipped etc) was giving me 5200 and when I replaced it with a new 13.8X9 it now runs 5900 RPM and 3MPH faster! An experienced Honda dealer/tech said my motor is a 6000RPM motor and it needs to be...

    Agreed. My closest Honda Marine dealer is a drive but will be checking them first when I put my list together. Should get my Service manual soon and can start there. I support my local butchers and farm stands always rather than corporate grocery stores. I no longer buy beef and pork at the...

    Local? wow that's far in my book. My local is an hour+ drive and said he would have a better inventory this spring. I did see one place up north of me called Hallberg Marine in Minnesota that claims to have all parts all brands. Might try them as well. Much appreciate the advice, thanks!

    I've got a new prop, will certainly check for fishing line, hope I don't find any there. Thanks Alan.

    Yes, was looking at that, I see the paper manual is 95 dollars on the Honda website. I had the manual on CD for my past boat's Yamaha, definitely worth buying the manual. Do you have any suggestions on where to but parts? I suppose the Honda site where they have the manual is good? We are...

    Injectors not firing

    Check out/call "Fuelinjectorman.com" down in southwest Florida. If still in business he's a great resource. He cleaned 4 injectors from my Yamaha 150 and the engine ran perfectly. Try calling him.

    2015 BFP60A

    Just bought a 2015 boat with a Honda BFP60A outboard. Oil is very clean and it runs well but having no history on past maintenance I'm thinking of replacing a few things like impeller, fuel filters, plugs etc. Any ideas on what else? Thanks.
