I put a stock pd prop on my stock pd 36. With the new prop I'm not running any faster and my rpm's dropped to 3600 wide ass open in water. I am only running about 23 with 2 people and medium size load... When I am at an idle I'm at 1200 RPMs ...why am I at such low RPMs at full speed?

Could b that the valves are leaking much worse now, u just didn't notice the loss n power due to the worn prop allowing u to turn more revs. Just went through this very same thing. _________________ 18'x54"CC Hanko/ 36PD
