Day 197 Engine testing under full load on the water

Spent several hours to cleanup boat to be able to get out to test engine on the water.

 Get boat out for 2 hours engine run.

What observed:

  • Engine and boat vibration  little more than I would consider as ok. 
  • Need to re-align  engine to shaft, looks like  it is not well setup.
  • Will try to replace or readjust engine mounts later
  • Engine works great under load, no black smoke, no dense white (fuel) smoke observed.
  • Low RPM and instant acceleration sound make me little nervous, likely i will try to measure injection moment and try to re-adjust it if needed.

Short video my engine run.
