Compression test is as follows;
94 92
97 96
99 92
Looking at the motor from the rear with all plugs removed and full charge on both brand new batteries.
Fuel is there and compression is even along all six around 95psi.. Fluctuations go from 93 to 98 if zi still remember.. I'll give it a taste right now..
Took my boat out today for a sea trial.. Not good, could only get 2500rpm at WOT in gear... In neutral I can "carefully" rev it up to 6000rpm and it sounds good, but under load I'm at a loss...
All new plugs/wires/coil packs/stator/ and compression test turned out perfect!!
What do think is...
My 1996 Johnson 225 needs a new prop but everything I am getting is to short in depth for the prop shaft.. The spline washer is 1/2" from the prop and the propeller si out of the exhaust hole.. Got the 14.5 by 21 pitch but the 3 time now its to short..
Anyone have a link for the correct prop?
Left bank compression is great but I'm checking for warp and replacing the gasket regardless.. The right bank is great minus the top one.. I'll check for warp, if I get the head machined I might as well do both, right??
