hi all I bought a 1997 wellcraft 220 with a 1997 Johnson 200hp ocean runner on it in 2013 and have a few problems id like to get fixed this spring ps power head was replaced in 2011 lower unit if fine also

1st is the fasttrack tilt/trim units seams to have bad seals as it leaks. wondering if I can get seals replaced or will I need whole new unit.

2nd anyone no what the WOT rpm should by for this motor .
.@ 5000 rpm im getting about 39 mph on gps
.
3rd might also be part of #2 I need to push throdlle all the way to get up on plane it seams as if I have no middle range rpm .no hiccups and motor seams to run fine I replaced the fuel filters ,plugs, primer bulb (carbs where rebuilt when I bout it owner had to pay that repair

4th I got and engine alarm a few time last year as I was getting up on a plane it would go off after I backed down off plane it goes away. have plenty of oil and bulb is firm also it starts and runs like a champ

thanks for any and all help john

You can get the seals for the tilt/trim. Try this forum or shop.evinrude.com.

The seal kit should be part # 434519

The operating range of that motor is 5000-6000 rpm at WOT.
