Hi,
Came across this forum and registered so I could ask this question. I own the subject boat with ~420hrs on it. In purchasing it late last year, this is my first full season with the boat. I've noticed that when trying to plane out, or whenever I'm running between 1000-1500rpms, the engine seems to misfire. Once planed-out it runs smooth. Although my mechanic took it for a ride and said it was nothing serious, it bothers me. Any thing I can try? Oil is very clean & I'm told there is an additive in the fuel at the marina.
Also, my daughter has a 215 Express about the same age & hours and I notice that their boat runs much much quieter. I have a swim platform, they do not. Could that be the source of the engine loudness?
Thanks in advance,
Frank
