| Post subject: | Prodrive question... |
my motor just started running a little wierd this past sunday while out hunting. its like its not running to its full potential. it'll only turn about 3650-3700 rpms, and i can tell its lost quite a bit of speed. i changed the spark plugs yesterday and when i pulled them out, one was wet (damp) and the other was completely dry. i dont know if this has anything to do with it. im for sure not a damn mechanic. i dont think it could be the prop being as the motor is a little over a year old and it hasnt been through to much nasty stuff. just looking for some advice on whats going on here guys. it is a 36hp with the new marine edition PD. |

you can check to see if a plug is firing by taking it out and reconecting the wire to the plug. Then ground the plug to a metal part on the motor and turn the motor on. warning hold onto the rubber part cause it will give you a little shock if not. |

When you get that solved, make sure your neutral rpms are set at 4300 |

sounds kinda weird but get a gauge and check your compression psi on each cylinder |
