Like many I have a new to me boat that has put me through the ringer trying to get it running right and reliably.
My latest issue is last time out at WOT I couldn't get the boat to rev past 3000 rpms and was running around 18 - 20 mph. What has lead me to this point? Let me tell you the tale...
I have a new to me 1984 Evinrude 185HP outboard on my 19 foot Grady White boat. I have struggled with getting any reliable performance out of this motor this whole season. I am hoping someone can help answer a few questions with some issues that I suspect may be putting my motor into SLOW mode...
