water pressure
 

I have a 98 27 fever wondering what the water pressure should be i have none at idle and about 10 to 15 at 3500 rpm is that to low? water temp reads about 130 to 140 tis is new to me so just checking thanks for the help.

Yeah seems low, I'm also fighting a water pressure issue. May want to check line to gauge, one time mine was plugged with sand. When correct, mine is 23-25 at 3k, 35 at WOT. Good to see another Maine Fountain owner on here:cool:

where dose the line off the gauge go any idea? how did u unplug it? where do u use ur boat?

35 is safe only with closed cooling. That's what I like to see when running hard. Idle is 3-4 psi on my boat.

just went out and looked at it the line is deff pluged working on uplugging it now thanks guys.

Is there anything else i should check after uplugging the line? There was alot of gunk in the line i had to unplug the fitting on the motor also got water 2 flow out of motor with line off.

I would unhook line at the gauge and blow back thru with compressed air. Blew a ton of sand out of mine one time......last time I let wife and friend use boat LOL. To answer about where I use my boat, mostly in the Kennebec river and off shore between Bath and Rockland. Friend of mine boats in Sebago alot, been meaning to make it up that way.

we just went to sabago yestoday u should come up sometime we go down that way also like to do bath to boothbay never beento rockland would like to try it sometime.

I usually put in in Damariscotta River, go down river and across, go to Richmond quite a bit. If you go to Boothbay do you go out and around or Back River/ Hells gates area?
