Hey guys....<br /><br /> I was out on the lake about 2 weeks ago and she ran like a champ. However, after she was warmed up (@ 30 min) when I would go from an idle into gear she would stall out? I was thinking maybe I should increase the idle rpm just a little? Any suggestions or thoughts on the cause and/or solution?<br /><br />Thanks for your time,<br />Shawn

Idle should be 800-1000.<br />Check compression.

Roscoe,<br /><br /> Thanks for the info I will do the compression test today and verify the ERPMS..... I also took a look at some other posts and this seems to be a common problem with Force Engines.<br /><br />Shawn

Hey Shawn, just wondering if you've got any updates of your stalling problem there? I (may) have a similar problem. If I put it into forward slowly at idle, sometimes it conks out. But if I crank it, like a hole shot, it's usually fine. Could this be an idling problem?
