that style has the most control over the water pressure that enters the motor. Most guys crack it a little on initial fire-up on the trailer and then open it more as the motor warms up. Keep it on the trailer and let it warm up and keep turning the knob until you get it where you like it.

Cool I’ll try it out this weekend thanks for the reply man

Yes that’s the one. Should idle in water at 140 degrees.

So when it idles at 140 it’s ready to go? What degrees is too hot for a bbf like to where I should shut it off before I mess something up? And what degrees is to low when running? Thanks for the reply man appreciate it

Just bought my first jet boat and I’m thinking of taking it out next weekend but I have some questions can you guys please help. Is this my gate valve to control water pressure going into the block? And also when I get to the launch should I let it run on the trailer with the valve half open and let it warm up before doing adjustments? What is the highest and lowest temp range it should stay? It’s a bbf. Thanks In advance.
