[QUOTE="Walkerdogman85, post: 414570, member: 19708"] I am running this motor on third hole down trimmed all the way down. I too out with 2 guys and fishing gear at 22-23 mph down river. My intake is right at the bottom of my boat. Where should it actually be set at? I have read flush with the bottom and bottom of boat with intake fin pins. I was hoping for better MPH. I have checked impeller clearance and wear ring. Also at top and wide open the motor seems to rev up and down not like cavitation but when it runs on the higher end of RPMs it run better and faster but it's just for short periods. I have removed the carbs and soaked them in cleaner. I'm not sure what else to do now? I don't have much spray now. I'll try to post pics tomorrow...
