"I installed a petronix electronic conversion kit, with a 40,000 volt coil. 2.3 l ford. They said i could go up to a .50 gap in the plugs. It is it .35 now (what it called for with points) What advantage /disadvantage is it to set gap higher.
Boat starts, idles, runs good. I was expecting a little more power,but am satisfied with what i have, hit 34 with 5 people, lots of gear, extra gas in boat(hole in gas filler hose) planned out, with a 15 p prop, 17.5ft boat. RPM was 5300ish.
with gear out of boat, 3 people in and pulling two tubes, was a little slow to plane out. I have whale tail (or whatever they are called on it).
thanks"
