first, thanks every one for your help I had a real tough time getting my 89 225 excel up and running.
Heres what has been done
New fuel lines from tank to engine
Remove on engine fuel filter and disconnect.
Put in 10 micron fuel filter and water sep
Put in shut off valve for the gas line going to my kicker.
rebuilt carbs
replaced reeds,
new intake gasket and redd gasket
new fuel pumps
new plugs
set the TPS to .41
Changed lower gear lube
I am getting a rough idle, I need to set my neatural idle to about 1100 to get a 800-750 in gear idle
Also, at WOT I only getting about 4500, I am using a 19p prop. SO I know I am not over propped what else would cause this?
I get an over heat after about an hour of running. I am going to change impellers tommorrow, so I will report back on that.
