1980 175HP OB having trouble making power and running smoothly under load.
Did the usual preliminary tests. Compression is at 90 PSI on all six cylinders. Strong blue spark even at large gaps on the spark tester. Then rebuilt the carbs, adjusted the floats, sync'ed and linked the carbs and adjusted the high and low speed timing.
Ive got new spark plugs and fresh gas. New fuel lines and checked that fuel tank vents. Also squeezing the primer bulb doesnt help.
I still had the same problem.
I pulled out the multimeter and checked all the electronic components according to the manuals specs and everything checks out ok.
I'm really getting discouraged here and really close to dumping the motor for a 4-stoke.
Please help!
