    Oceanpro 200 idle

    My Ocean Pro 200 hp is from 1998. It runs pretty well, but if I adjust the idle down to spec ( 650) it stalls while maneuvering. If I speed it up to 1000 it does not stall but the boat is too fast to maneuver and the shift is sticky. I have tried the adjustments according to the book ...

    prop-stainless/ali

    Hi My old Sriper 23 WA runs about right on a 15/17 aluminium prop, although the 14 year old 200 Oceanpro only gets up to 4000 rpm , around 34 knots. The prop is now getting a bit scruffy. If I replace it with a SS prop would I keep the same size and would there be any advantage/ problem?

    200 Oceanpro fuel system, 1998

    Hi - luckily a minor problem this time. There are two tubes poked into the air silencer and they pulled out of place while I was getting the engine ready. Where do they go ( each end) and what do they do? Thanks. My factory manual doesn't show them at all.

    Oceanpro 200 shift switch

    I don't get this. My shift assist switch never worked and it turned out the switch was defective. I put a new one in but it still doesn't do anything. When I look at the shift lever while operating the gear shift, the gear shift arm gets close to the top of the switch as you enter ahead but not...

    Pitch high or power low?

    My boat is a Striper 2300 with a 200 Oceanpro. It came with a 15x19 but a bit banged up and with the numbers unreadable. The maker suggested a 15x17 replacement, but when i got it on I felt like iI was in first gear and it seemed to me I was screaming around with no traction and low speeds would...

    Dirty WOT timing

    I have been struggling with the wot thing on my 200 Oceanpro and for some reason could not get a sensible result using the Reeves dockside method. I can't hang out the back at wot because its always very rough here. I think it has to do with the quickstart - I don't see how you can prevent it...

    200 Oceanpro fuel supply

    trying to find cause of low wot power I am looking at the fuel system. I notice after pumping up before starting, the last fuel filter ( by the pump) is full. It's glass and you can see what is in there. When running , this filter is half full / half air. It's always been like this. Also the...

    200 1998 oceanpro lost power

    The 1998 200 oceanpro has lost some power and no longer gets over 3750 rpm or so. I replaced the plugs and filters - the plugs looked normal-ish. It starts, idles and runs great except wide open I'm not sure about the full throttle advance screw which I may have lost position in an earlier...

    Oceanpro throttle/advance

    I am struggling with setting up a new remote+cables and see this; With throttle cable off, the throttle does not return all the way to the stop after opening it. What stops it is the rotating advance thing under the flywheel which is a little stiff. The throttle return spring does not overcome...

    Lowering gear case 200 Oceanpro

    Reading all this, I believe my stiff shift and resulting problems may be binding gear thrust rod at the gear case top surface. I have the book, and it deals with lowering the gear case, but it doesn't say anything about releasing and engaging the actual drive shaft, which must be going through...

    200hp OceanPro stalls in reverse

    When I go astern the gear engages then as I increase throttle it staggers and dies. Forward is fine. I tried disconnecting the wire to the shift switch. Background - I have been struggling with a remote fault but it now seems to work and gear and throttle levers look as if they move correctly...

    teleflex gear shift cable

    I'm working through a remote control/cable/gear shift problem on my 200 hp Ocean Pro from 1998. The shift got very stiff then the remote broke ( outer sheath anchor). Any way the gear cable has a plastic fitting at the engine end, with an eye. This plastic fitting moves a little on the inner...

    tacho/charging on 200hp omc 1998

    Why are my problems always weird? After relaunching for winter, the charging/tacho system does this;- After starting at first, OK, tacho working -, charge voltage heads for 14 v. After a while, (longer at first start then shorter after a bit of running), tacho stops and charge voltage...
