 new 27 kohler used mud buddy LTThis may be a dumb question but here it is. I bought a new 27 hp kohler off line is there a difference between that and a mud motor specific 27 hp motor. I am running a 1536 fisher 27 mud buddy LT I did cut the transome down to 16in. I can only get 15mph out of it with just me in the boat 270 lbs. From what I have read I should be getting around 20mph. Prop looks good.

Re: new 27 kohler used mud buddy LT What size prop are you running? Is it worn out? It may look good but will be shot.

Re: new 27 kohler used mud buddy LT No, there is no difference.
What are your RPM's? Do you know exactly what prop you have and what it measures? _________________ CSM Custom 18x42 Battleship with a 36 PD beating you to the hole My Rig (Old Motor) viewtopic.php?f=5&t=45193 (New Motor) viewtopic.php?f=5&t=54733 Stumps Fear Me |
