2003 150 Evinrude

[Bert]

Finally got the boat rigged and took it out today. All I can say is WOW! It ran great, started at the touch of the key, idled smooth, throttled up just fine, plenty of power, more than the 150 Ocean Pro that it replaced. Only concern was that it idled at 800 RPM's. I thought it would be a bit lower, but if that's all I have to complain about, I'm happy.

Yeah, Id believe that motor would be more around 650 under load in gear, but someone correct me if im wrong.

Just found the spec in the book, it is 650 RPM's in gear. I was getting 800 RPM's out of gear, so I'm probably close to where I need to be.
