i just switched my ops .45 motor out in my rigger from the disk 45 to the new drum 45 both ops. i check the head clearance and set it to .009 i left the pipe from the old motor on the rigger set at the same pipe lenght. i have the same fuel and richen the motor to break it in, also put and a small prop just to run a few heat cycles on the motor. now heres is the problem with i launch the boat i hit sticky water it just stops i richen the motor more but the same result i went up 1.5 point on the flow meter and then tried going the other way. then just crank the needle all the wayout just to see what happens but same result when the prop hits the water it comes to stop. open for suggestions .
