Was a really fun ride out there today. Although my brother never showed to bring up the Blue Meanie ( Aka Blue my wad), we ran the Moo boat all day long without a real hiccup. Did seem to be running on 6 cylinders at idle when we pulled into the marina, which seemed odd. Pulled back out of the no wake zone alone while my bud and my kids got the truck, and it ran balls out just fine. Still did it when I came back in. Maybe it's uneven idle is catching up with it, I dunno. I'll check plugs and crap tomorrow, but I'm thinking the baffles had a little bit to do with it (They're coming back out, just so everyone knows, lol, the " worst lake in Az for noise restrictions", yeah, saw 4 other jet boats, none had baffles in their OT's, to hell with that!)
Still didn't get her opened up. Too rough out there with the wind and wake barges, but still a nice lake. Did light it up a few times, but could only sustain around 3000 or so rpm (4000 on one burst) , This thing does NOT like really rough water! Aired it out a couple of times. I can see now why the kids are afraid of it, lol. The boat wants to run, no doubt about it, but is picky about its water. Not a good thing, I'm thinking. Maybe the diverter will help that.
But was fun! Great lake were it not for the wake barges!
