dual spx
Member
I have a 98 spx. I bought this boat a few months back and when riding, noticed that the trim would only go up between 1/2 to 3/4 on the gauge. I could tell it wasn't just the gauge due to the way it handled. I have a 97 spx that does not have this problem. I adjusted the small rod where the trim adjustment arm meets the nozzle so that I would get a higher trim setting when I adjusted the trim up as far as it would go. The next time I put it in the water it ran great. Much better handling and ran faster than before. I pushed it pretty hard that day. The next day I got on it and went for a ride and the wear ring was shot. No power and high rpms. I am replacing the wear ring now and need to know if the adjustment of the nozzle is anyway related to burning up the wear ring or was this strictly a coincidence?
Any help would be appreciated!! Love to go fast but not at the expense of wear ring replacement.
