1996 Evenrude 225. No matter what prop i try 25p, 24p, 23p it does not seem to change any high rpms at WOT. The max rpms I get is 5000rpms. I have checked rpm gauge to another one and no differance. The only thing i gain is 2mph from a 23p to a 25p . My rpms should go up when going to a smaller pitch prop but it dont.
My questoin is do I start changing high speed jets? If so do I go bigger or smaller and how far in size of jet. What about running it to lean and rich and how do I tell if it is to rich or lean. Do I have to adjust timmimg too?
The boat is a Stratos 290fs 20'5"
When trying the 23p prop I can trim up till it blows out and even then my rpms wont go over 5200 rpms.
It starts and idels great and take off is very quick to plane on any prop but no top rpms. Looking to get rpm range of 5500 to 5800.
What to try?
