  • What is the Correct Proppelor

    I have a 1993 Johnson v4 90hp outboard and I'm pretty sure the Propellor on it is not the correct one,does anyone have advise on what Propellor to use on this Outboard
    Thank in Advance

    Well, run you boat at WOT (Wide Open Throttle) note your rpm. For optimum overall performance, you want to get as close to the engine rpm limit as possible, do not go over. 1 pitch up, you loose (estimated) 200-300rpm. visa-versa for 1 Pitch down.

          Propellor

          Is that a standard prop 13x19 i've no idea on propellors and would like to know the ideal prop to buy this outboard is on my 17ft Wilson Flyer fishing boat i've not had it long and took it on a local water to see how it performed and wasn't all that impressed the engined seemed to want to go but felt sluggish i thought it may have been the prop i've cleaned up the engine a little and it runs and starts great

            There is no standard propeller, it done with trial and error. The following is how you choose a propeller. lower the pitch more acceleration, higher more top speed.
