Congrats on finally getting it out for a good run. Looks like a fun little boat. Great heritage with a Lyman. Enjoy!!

she,s bad azz.glad to see it running.

That's a great little boat and looks like a very similar hull to the Chris Craft 19 Lancer. I own a 1969 Lancer with a 283F (flywheel aft, like most conventional I/O's) and it is a wonderful boat. That 307Q motor (flywheel forward) is a good little engine and should push that boat into the mid 40's if it is healthy. Careful when winterizing, there is water that gets trapped in the intake manifold and will crack the bottom of the intake. There is a plug on top you can remove and suck the water out with a turkey baster. Glad you are on the water with it and thanks for taking us on your journey about the boat.

If I remember right. That engine has the fuel pump mounted on top of the engine. The pushrod doesn't get enough oil and gets shorter as it wears. If you think your low on power, measure the pushrod length.

Great tips! Have her winterized , and all rapped up. I will check the push rod in March. Thanks SC
|
does it have an electric fuel pump?
|
No, I rebuilt the factory one, I do have carter electric fuel pump I can try.
|
Muc, you remember right, the fuel pump is on the top of the motor. I wonder if I messed up the check valves, one more thing to check.
