MY 50HP GOES AROUND 5300-5500 DEPENDING ON LOAD.

I think the experts will add input and the might suggest to set it up to get 5800 with an average load.

Waterdog - I just purchased an Evinrude factory manual for my 1988 Evinrude 48 SPL, and it also includes information on your 50 motor. According to the manual....<br /><br />Full throttle operation range - 4,500 to 5,500 RPM<br />Idle RPM in Gear 800+/- 30 RPM<br />Test Wheel OMC p/N 432968<br />Minimum Test Wheel PRM 5,200 RPM<br />Ignition Module RMP Limit - 6,100 RPM<br />Recommended Plugs - QL78C @.030 in. gap
