Hello Gentlemen. I'm new to this site and have been reading a lot of posts here about the Ficht outboards.
I just bought a very clean 2001 center console with a 2001 150 hp Ficht Ram Injection. The previous owner of this boat had the engine serviced every year by a reliable dealer and has had some necessary upgrades done to the computer system(?).
My question to anyone here that might have some insight is about how the engine seems to run while at 1100 rpm thru the harbor and after running at 3200- 4000 rpm. the engine runs great while cruising. The engine seems to run slightly rough after putting it in gear to leave the harbor and a little rough after running the boat for a while and lowering rpms to approach the harbor. I know the owner took good care of the engine. I have an invoice from the dealer showing the winterization from 12/05/11. new xc12pepb spark plugs, 2 types of fuel filters, fogging oil, gear lube, fuel conditioner, etc. I believe i'm using TC-W3 oil. I've run the boat for approx. 2 good hrs since splashing the boat. Can anyone help me with this. Model #RE150FXSIF SER. # G 04905345. Thank you.
