WOT?

[davejnz]

I have an 87 Johnson 20hp.I bought a Clymer manual(sucks)and after reading it it doesn't say what the WOT is for this motor.It does list the test wheel RPM's at 4550.Is that the same as the WOT for a prop?

Dave....the operating range on yer' engine is 4500 to 5500 rpm. Prop it for 5300rpm to be on the safe side.

Re: WOT?

thanks alot,my tiny tach will be here this week and after determining my WOT i'll probably be shoppin for a new prop because my current 10/13 <br />aluminum doesn't seem to be reving my engine like it should.
