<p><font size="2">Yeah I might agree.... Maybe fuel contricted (clogged fuel filters will achieve full rpms under no load but bogg down under load)<br>
<br>
Or maybe restricted air?<br>

I apologize for the brevity- I am responding from a Def Leopard/Poison/Cheap Trick concert with the Admiral and her kids<br>

Darin - Did you have an engine survey done? Sounds like you're not getting<br>
enough fuel or have compression problems.<br>

Subject: [C36IA] prop pitch and engine problem<br>
<br>
I'm post-survey, but still pre-purchase of a 2000 C36MKII with a Max-<br>
Prop 3-blade feathering prop. I've read enough of the forum posts to <br>
get an idea what rpm and hull speed I should be getting but it's <br>
really weird, and I can't tell what might be causing the issue other <br>
than prop pitch.<br>
<br>
In the sea trial, I was only getting about 4.5kts under full power in <br>
flat lake conditions. Free rpm was around 2850 and loaded rpm was <br>
about 2800 (50rpm droop -- not enough).<br>
<br>
We asked seller to repitch to confirm, and he's been having a diver do <br>
it with no success. Here are the things they've tried...<br>
<br>
15x18 4.5kts 2800rpm<br>
15x20 6.7kts 1800rpm<br>
15x18 6.8kts 1900rpm<br>
15x16 7.0kts 16-1700rpm (yikes!)<br>
<br>
It's weird! I can't imagine an engine related issue, or it wouldn't <br>
get to 2800rpm, I wouldn't think. Compression problems when loaded?<br>
<br>
Any ideas?<br>
