I have a new question I have the timing advanced quite a bit till like 24 25° from the stock 18 20 do you think I could damage anything if I’m careful or should I back it off? And I will make sure I run premium fuel.
Wondering if anybody can help me or if this is possible I would like to use the stator off of my 1991 150 mariner on my 1987 200 horse 2.4 L and I will also need to swap the flywheel as it is bigger on the 150 to accept the larger stator. Is this possible? Or will it throw the engine out of balance?
I have a 2 L mariner, powerhead serial number D050422 on the freeze plug and OD 123391 on the transom mount… checking to see if it is actually a 2 L Bridgeport powerhead if anyone could help me that would be greatly appreciated??
My 1980 mariner was a 200 and I’m using the exact same prop.. the mariner would turn a 21 pitch this other 2.4 L will not even run a 21 pitch. It will only run 19. my 2.4 L runs beautiful. It just doesn’t pull or make the power … I’m going to measure and check stater and trigger just to see how...
I had to increase timing to 25° just to get it to even come even close.. maybe it is only at 175 I have no idea but everything is bigger, carburetters engine block everything and it has over 130 compression on every hole when it’s warm.. still will not rev out even close to the mariner
OK it was re-painted black and it has a Bridgeport cover and I’m pretty sure I’m seeing a bridge in the port could you elaborate a little bit more? And it does run like a stock motor. Let me tell you that’s why I’m asking.
