Hi all after few hiccups with my 82 evinrude 70 it’s finally running as it should be.
took it out yesterday and with 5 people (2 adults and 3 kids) picnic items a dog and 50L of fuel onboard, would get up to just over 30 on the gps and would rev to 5800 and still had little left with the spark advance, it’s over what it should says 5500 max rpm but not to bothered about that as seen ppl say to go over slightly.
question it’s running a 13.75 15 prop at the min do you think if I prop it to a 13 21p it would be ok for the rev range it’s on a light shallow V hull boat like a fletcher but it’s a concord fiesta. It gets up onto plane in about 10/15 secs at the moment.
thank you in advance
