Okay, months ago I needed help with my boat motor, basically it wasnt going past a certain RPM and the speed wasnt there....so i replaced the powerpack with an identical one that was on there already. All is good, so far. Sooo, months later I saw on ebay the same motor I have: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=250875722514&viewitem= and notice where the powerpack was located. I quickly caught my attention and so I went to check my motor and sure enough the bracket is on the same side of motor, just like the one picture(power pack is the big blue thing on the side)......so right now I am assuming that when I bought the motor the person used the wrong powerpack and slapped it on there. The powerpack I have now is located on the other side underneath my flywheel. I was able to bolt it on, but my retainer clip gets in the way....make a long story short. My boat starts up, and hits the RPM that I had lost before. My question is this:
Does having the wrong powerpack, really make that big of a difference? It starts up fine after running for awhile, cold starts give me trouble. I hit about 5500-5900RPM, and cruise at about 38MPH on my 89' Sportcraft C/C with an aftermarket T-Top.....any thoughts would be helpful. I am thinking why fix it if it aint broke, or should I spend the 200 dollars and get it fixed...
sorry about the long text. Thank you!
