boat maintenance service

what is causing my 04 merc. 50 4str efi to max out at 3200 rpm?
History-last year motor running fine-during winter storage maintenance I cross-threaded a spark plug hole. Brought it to a Merc. service center, head was removed and heli-coil installed.
I got boat back from mechanic with a bouncy idle 800-820rpm, mechanic said possibility bad gas-Used Stab-il when I did storage maintenance? Also motor shakes/vibrates causing steering to turn at idle because of bouncy idle.
I finally got the boat out yesterday, first time all year-the it would not go past 3200 rpm-all out-very under powered.
In reverse the Rpms go past 3200. I put fresh gas in yesterday morning-premium.
OK, first get rid of the premium fuel. All merc 4/s are designed for 87 octane, up to 10% ethanol. This could be a number of things, i would start by checking the valve timing, could be out a tooth. There are alignment marks on the flywheel and the cam pulley. If this is a fuel problem, the only way to diagnose it is by having the motor scanned by a dealer, which should have been done in the first place. Our marina “hooks up” every EFI motor, firstly to check operating hours, and to verify serial#s. And of course, check for water in the fuel!

The Essential Boat Maintenance Manual (Essential)
$10.48 It doesn't take a university education in naval architecture to understand the components of a boat. But it is important to have that basic knowledge before undertaking repair and maintenance work. A poor repair job can create weaknesses that could place the boat and her crew in danger. The Essential Boat Maintenance Manual is the ideal reference to ensure that such problems don't arise. It details the various repair and maintenance jobs that crop up with every boat after every summer season, and then describes how these jobs must be tackled - so the boat is as sound and seaworthy as the day she was built. Covering the makeup of both sailboats and motorboats, this book is packed with detailed instructions, tips and hints that reduce the cost and effort of maintenance work. It is a must for every boat owner who wants to keep their boat well maintained and in shipshape condition. |
