Hello everyone. First off ive never had to work on a boat but im pretty handy
with that i have been google searching a lot and it seamed their are a lot of people with Javelins on this forum. so i thought i would ask for help after not being able to find the info i need by searching.
So i have a 1994 Javelin 409 FS with a Evinrude 200XP. When i first bought the boat it had a 5 inch HiJack plate on it and a Shooter 27pp. The tach was working i think. I truly cant remember what it read my RPMs at. The boat ran great but was topping out at 55mph per speedo and walking extremely bad. I dont have gps and the walking was beyond correcting at the wheel. After talking to my uncle that use to have the same boat back when it first came out, i removed the JP.
At 3 1/2" under the pad 27p shooter water pressure 25-30 but my RPMs read only 1500, WOT 45 MPH no walking going slower then crap and sucked out of the hole. So my uncle let me use his Renegade 25pp w/blowout ring, 3 1/2" under the pad, water pressure 25-30, WOT 50mph with Speedo, 2000 RPM, and walks really bad and fills like its on its nose unless i WAY over trim the boat. like way over trim 10-15' roost. If i dont WAY over trim the boat wont hit 45mph. When trying to take off it wants to blow out unless the trim is 100% down. never done this before.
I am trying to check im tach and i cant get to it or even see it from under the dash. So im trying to remove the dash to get to the tach. i took off the wheel and cant get the spacer that sits between the wheel and dash off. i removed the wheel nut, but that spacer thing wont slide off. any ideas?
once i get to the tach what or how do i check it?
where can i get a replacement? im not 100% on if i should be search for a Javenlin tach or for a Evinrude tack if you know what i mean...
Thanks >>>>>
