    Mariner 150 hard to start

    I have gotten a Mariner Magnum III 150 and have another post about it with the 70# compression.

    prop swap

    Woud a three blade 23 pitch with 13.75 blades turn about the same as a four blade 23 pitch with 13.25 blades? I know that you might lose a little top end with the four blade but get more hole shot right???

    tstats with or without

    Does it hurt to run a 150 mariner 1993 without the tstats and also how do you back flush the cooling system? May have gotten some sand in there.

    70 lb compression on mariner 150???

    I hit a sandbar and drove around on the lake in shallow water all day, (got out of channel) I thought that maybe my prop was bad because I hit something and needed replacing when I couldn't hardly get it to plane off and lost 14mph on top end.
