When your out there running a top speed run trim the motor up a bit and you will get less hull in the water creating less drag and a smoother ride and it will run way faster. When your up on plane you notice how like 3/4 of the boat is touching water. That’s robbing speed. But it’s not a race boat. Just a tip!

Love all the advice from you outboard guys, helping a young man out. In the future, you may want to update your prop. Could help with performance. Side note, try not to forget to trim up the engine when pulling the boat out of the water. Dragging the boat up a concrete ramp, with the engine down will mess up your prop and shaft. Don't ask how I know that. 😂

A week after a guy bought my inboard/outboard SeaRay, he called me wanting to know if I knew who could work on the lower end and fiberglass. I had showed him how to lift the trim before pulling out and the lowering it to drain the water out and lifting it again. He forgot to lift it before leaving. He went ripping down the extremely rough road to the boat ramp. I always drove about 30 and he said he was going 65. Lower end caught the road several times. Boat was destroyed. He spent $12000 to take the boat out twice, once on the day he bought it and once on the day he destroyed it. I had told him to get insurance, but he laughed and said only fools bought boat insurance.

When putting the decals on, you spray the soapy water first, then lay the graphic down to help give you the option to position as well as get bubbled/creases out, then you can pull off the top layer. Spraying water on the top layer plastic to remove it doesn't do anything.

Good job on the water pump. Even though the old one didn't look bad it probably wasn't getting a good seal, maybe on the base plate. That can cause it to not build pressure, which means it won't overcome the poppet valve tension. I've had brand new pumps right out of the box be bad.

It’s gotta be nice having outboards ran in fresh water only. Around here, most have been ran in the salt out in the Puget Sound and that reeks havoc on them after awhile.

@MM_in_Havasu Жыл бұрын

If replacing the water pump impeller doesn't cure the heating issue, it's possible you could have some crud inside the water jackets in the engine. I think a fresh water pump will work wonders. Replace it at least every other year if not each boating season. As for the fuel primer, get a new one. Marine stuff is not forgiving and does cost $$$. Keep the old water pump impeller for a spare just in case, and an extra set of sparkplugs is a good idea too. Looks like you got it sorted out pretty good now! BOAT = Bring out another thousand!

Good job on it. Good luck with it catch some big fish. When you get the boat up to speed start trimming up your motor to bring the bow down. You will see a little more speed as well.

@eagle777dh Жыл бұрын

Trimming up makes the bow go up. To much up and the bow will bounce up and down to much down and the bow will plow. Correct trim and the bow will cut through the ripples and only bounce a couple times on the bigger waves and smooth out on its own. A short reverse after going through weeds most times will clear the weeds from the lower unit. The groves on the plate and impeller cause cavitation in the pump making it lose volume and pressure.

I had a boat once. I bought it used. It was a 16 foot fibreglass boat with a 55hp Kiekaffer engine, which was the forerunner of the Johnson outboard I believe. I loved it but I was always working on it. BOAT stands for Break Out Another Thousand!

With a garden hose hooked up to it it don't even need a pump with that the proper way to test it out of the water is let the motor down in a tank I messed with folks all my life I thought everyone knew that you can hook a hose up to anything and it will come out of the places it should until it's idling or running in a tank is the true test of the water pump

I said it as soon as you bought it, those water pumps are junk and need a redesign to last a little longer because if they sit any time at all dry they are on their way out and they hold the shape they sat in.

You need to make sure the top of the motor is level with the water when running wide open. This will level out the boat. As you get to a plain look back and trim motor up and you will see and feel the difference.

At 22:26, a better idea would be to rotate lower unit/shaft 90 degrees to set them horizontal. Then put on the outer housing. That way, you could see that the two rubber seals/o-rings remained in place with no part of the outer/lower one shifting out of place. And in this position, they are less likely to shift out of place.

Once you get idle timing correct with rpm setting then make sure the butterfly's are set evenly at the closed position by slightly wriggling to get perfectly closed position. Then finally you may have to alter the full throttle position of the blades. Then you will have the full 40hp ski boat potential 😂

There's a reason for the saying, Bust Out Another Thousand. Always something. Lol. Good call on the water pump. Forgot to comment on the last video. Believe they sell rebuild kits for the trim. Once the boat is up on plane, play with the trim. There's a sweet spot. Too far either way and the boat will slow down and the motor sound will change. In the sweet spot, that motor should sing. Listen to it.

Young man you should replace water pump every couple years minimum. Also, read up on trimming a boat. Change the prop and be sure at top speed rpm’s are correct. Prop size matters. You can size the prop to keep rpm’s in the correct range. If you overspeed it will destroy engine. There is info and specs out there for your setup but you still have to try props to be sure. I say this from inside my boat changing trolling motor batteries.

It might have been bigger than a 40 because it was a 4 cylinder. Reason we were working on it was for a burnt piston and rings. Someone put the motor together and crushed the shim and o-ring on the bottom main cap and made the bottom cylinder run lean. Only during testing did we get the hot alarm after fixing it. It was peeing good and really wasn't hot so a new sensor fixed the alarm.

One commenter mentioned making sure the Oil/Gas Ratio is correct. Since I haven't followed this project very close I'm not 100% sure what yr the motor is. I’m guessing early 90’s. With that I am assuming even though this model has oil injection you are bypassing that and mixing your gas as those oil injection systems were known to fail.
