I bought it one month ago. I put it in the water and everything is fine. No leak, motor runs great. I use it few week-end but never tried at WOT. Last week-end when i tried, the lake was calm, two adults, fuel tank full. It looks like the supercharge don’t boost at 100%. Do you think it slip?

Have you changed the spark plugs? That seems to fix the issue a lot of the time.

I bought them today. Will be change this week-end
I believe a favourite test on this site is to remove the hoses into the SC,,,and see the blades turn easily by hand,,,mapeaning washers are slipping,,,I also like to start it up,,,put my hand around the SC hose…rev the motor,,,and feel if the hose swells…it should swell a bunch if the SC is functioning.

As i don’t know exactly how the SC has been rebuilt by the previous owner, i will play safe and do it myself this week-end. In the same time, i will put new spark plugs. I will also verify the wear ring and impeller. At the end of all this i will be on a solid base that all is perfect. No headache for the rest of the summer.
We will enjoy the boat! [emoji4]
I will keep you all in touch in two weeks…
