Merc XR-6 150 Preformance - 07/26/17 11:59 PM
I spent a week at the lake I fueled up the boat with 89 octane as I have done for 20 years added seafoam per instructions. It preformed like it always does slight suprise was it ran 5800 in summer heat. Well my son had it out and needed fuel put in 87 at Marina on lake. It lost 400 RPM and would only run 5400 and lost it's snap witch made it easier out of the hole and handeling was boreing for me. The outboard runs a 23 pitch trophy blueprinted by SCP. Tach is good I have 2 they both report the same numbers. I just find it strange how boring it got. Am I losing my mind or would this be common?
TLW I have had several surgeries since I wanted to reseal my powerhead still healing up last one they took 1/2 my first rib and a muscle from my neck still have the other side to go. That said I am doing better than I have in years Hopefully I can get this done in a few months. I appoligise for not getting the boat down to you.
