See full version: Sync a v6 johnson 175 faststrike
I had a 25p gade. My BIL is running it now on his Ranger with a Fast Strike 150. He likes it because he doesn't have to trim all the way down to come out of the hole like he did with a raker. No idea what his runs like, his boat was always pretty stout for a 150 bolted flat on the back of the boat. I have a 25P TR04, its pretty stiff though. I haven't tried it on this engine yet.
Love to see the speed increase numbers too. more
I liked the fury the best and it was the fastest. My second fave was the Tempest, and I wish I would have kept it. The 26 was to big, it could deal with it if just me, light on a cold day, but not with a passenger in the summer. The TXP drove awesome, wasn't fast. The TR04 in 25 was faster then the 24 TR04, and I didn't see much change at all going to the 24.
I run a 24p raker 2 right now. I cruise mid 50's at like 4.5K rpms.
I just got a set of the 335195 heads (recalled 1991 Heads) and will be installing them and rejetting in the next week. I also plan to cc the old 458 heads as well as the 91 recalled heads. I have a 96 GL 150 Intruder that has never been apart but has what i have found is I have the lowest perfoming heads 458's The 458's are the part number for the standard 150's an I should have the 311's . I have a good decarbon regement and have always seen 95-105 on a compression test with my meter. I plan to have a friend check it with his higher end SNAP ON before to check accuracy. If you want a set of heads Lockjaw is the man, if he isnt selling, let me know. I have lead on 3- 1991 motors with the 335195 heads.
These engines are limited to 6150, so I wouldn't get a wiseco for that. If you do a search on here, there is alot of negative about them, they tend to stick, so tolerances are very critical if you want to use them. I think they need a much longer break in period too. The best thing you can do is make sure you get a good machinist to do your block work. I used Nichols Outboard in Tennessee because I know Paul, and he is only a couple hours drive. They did my assembly of the short block too, not to mention they did a sleeve. [links]

Re: optical sensor for timing. here
What engine? model number, yr and hp.
What meter ?
Which manual? Factory or after mkt?
Are those the plastic carb bowls ?
also the tach keeps cutting out but all the wires are tight behind the dash where else do I check or what else does this mean here
just replaced the bowls tonight and now at least it idles but still isn't right should we do another linc and sync we did one after we replace the optical sensor the other day he told me to take it out tomorrow and run it hard to clear all the junk out of it and then he can tell more by seeing the plugs and we'll go from there any imput you have I appreciate it more
The idle should be around 600 in gear. Look in the sticky at the top of this forum for your particular motor. more
Banner, I believe your motor's idle speed is set by idle timing. First check to see that the throttle cable closes the carbs all the way. If so, get a Service manual and double check idle and max timing. more
I'm new to this forum. I don't know what or where the "sticky" is. Thanks for the rpm in gear setting. [links]
