So late last summer we finally got my 1997 Pursuit 2460 in the water with a new long block. After chasing down a few pesky injectors I think we have a good running engine, but...
I run out of throttle.
This boat won't go over 3200RPM and about 30-31MPH and I've been scratching my head thinking the issue is fuel delivery. I haven't got a test gauge on the fuel system yet but it runs so well up to that point I'm skeptical of it being a fuel flow. I would expect a 330-350HP to make this a 45 MPH boat even if I don't need that much speed.
Once I runs out of "go" it's only a bit more movement in the throttle until it hits the max.
If there was a throttle cable issue (it's nice and smooth but probably original) would the adjustment needs be most likely on the injection linkage or in the shifter? What other wisdom can people share.
