"I have a 1988 2455 bayliner sunbridge, with a 305(302) omc in it. Its missing brutally, is the only thing that causes an engine like this to miss is the plugs, cap, wires?
Also The rpm is about 500 less then the optimal operating range, it doesn't get any higher then 3500. which only allows it to do about 25mph. last summer it was easily doing 30-35mph. But i have a different prop on it, a four blade 15 by 16 pitch. the old one was a 3 blade 15 1/4 by 15. Is the prop the only reason i'd have the lack of speed? I can barely get up on a plane with 3 people on board. before i was planing and wake boarding with 6 or more.
Can anyone make a suggestion for a good prop that allows me to plane easily with a lot of weight? i don;t really care about high end speed, I just want to be able to plane and board while I have a 5 or 6 people on again.
last question, does anyone know a website that gives you tricks to optimize engine horsepower/torque?
I'd really appreciate any help anyone could give me. Thanks"
