    1995 ProV 150 max RPM 3600

    Anything funky with the old plugs? Compression test numbers? Spark on all leads?

    Crusader 350 w/ Velvet Transmission: Locked up after brief shutdown

    I’m sure of your setup, but if it is like my 7.4s and in-line gears, I know I can pull the velvet drives out without pulling the engines on my boat. Disconnect shaft couplers and slide shaft towards the stern to see what kind of clearance you would have. If there is room, put a bottle jack under...

    Bad compression test on 4 & 6 cylinders

    Did you do a bad compression test on cylinders 4 and 6 and are just bragging about it? Did you get a bad report from someone doing a compression test on cylinders 4 and 6? Relative to what?
