Not sure that I approve. This engine called for a thorough valve job at minimum. A wet/dry compression test would have revealed the condition of the piston rings. If all yo7 want to do is “get the motor running” as Steppinwolf said, then ok, but taking the head off is more than halfway to a valve job/piston ring overhaul.

I am following you for some time and really apreciate help from your videos. I have 2015 Verado 225 with 1000 hours, bought it with 200 hours. In few past days I felt that on idle motor shakes a bit, rpm is good, stays calm. In gear shakes a little untill gets more throttle and then normal up to 5500 rpm. When I changed spark plugs motor was in water, so when I took out 3rd plug I could hear air draught through chylinder while sea was going up and down through the leg and exhaust. Is this normal because exhaust valve is open in that moment or there should not be air through cylinder when plug is out? I felt this only on 3rd cylinder. Should I do compression or leak test? I cleaned injectors, changed plugs, all fuel filters... thanks for advices

Thanks for the video. Gives me a possible idea of what’s going on with my ‘16 350 Verado with @120 hrs. Around 4k rpm it starts jumping rpm. Also my father who grew up wrenching in his father’s service station says he hears a misfire. You have any ideas? Marina tech said they had to replace a resistor. But it’s still doing it and confirmed it with going out with one of their Captains. He heard it as well, yet the techs can’t seem to figure it out.

Check out the Trim sensor, if it’s reading is incorrect it may believe your engine is not in the water or too high to run.

@delreypimp Жыл бұрын

@@KillinTimeHuntingFishing thanks for the input. I’ll check it, but I don’t think it’s the case because when trimmed all the way down and even when Captain Kevin took it out and gradually sped it up to plane, once the rpm’s get to @4k it starts jumping around looking for a place to settle in. If that makes sense. Driving me nuts bc I’m not sure if it’s killing my fuel consumption, or doing other damage. Plus it’s a new boat for me. It’s flawless except for this issue.
