    Questions about flushing

    Ok took my boat out. Started going pretty good then didn’t want to go into reverse unless I went pretty high rpm. Otherwise it sounded like a car trying to get into gear. Kept going and then got out into the channel. After half throttle it’d appear to be working fine then when increasing rpm...
