Yes, your right. Good job on Four Winns on this cluster system that don't work and nobody want to fix.
I would like to know what the boat should run for mph and what Prop. I believe it should run 4400 to 4600 rpm at WOT.
I found the Coke was not coming off all the way do to a Lever being on the wrong side of the coke kick off lever. It was only 5 to 10 degrees but enough to make a difference. I took it out again with the 19 pitch 14.5 diameter Quicksilver aluminum (not the best condition). I got 42 mph out of it at what was some were up near 4500 rpms after running a separate ground to the cluster. Then I tried the 19 pitch x 14 7/8 Mirage prop (new condition) what look like 4200 at 42mph. *(slower hole shot, too much prop) This is all at 90 heat with high humidity. This boat also has a rebuild engine that who know what camshaft they put in it. I bought the boat last fall, took it out twice. Once it didn't run for crap. Cleaned card, fuel filter, check timing. Brought timing light with built in tach. It run 42 mph with that 19 pitch Quicksilver prop at 4200rpm in cold weather second trip last fall.
I should have a 19 pitch Ballistic coming this week,not ordered yet. That should be about right?
Sorry, but I hate this Cluster!!!! I will end up selling the boat just because of the cluster.
