Hello,
I have a pair of 3208 375hp engines in a 37 Bertram (4,200 hours). The issue is that the stb. engine is getting weak. It now only turns up to 2650. Both turned up to 2800 when I purchased the boat three years ago. The pt. engine still turns up to almost 2800 (2750), probably not all the way because of the stb. motor not providing as much power. Another thing I noticed is that heading down sea the stb. engine will surge to higher rpm when surfing down the wave, the pt. stays put.
The bottom is clean and the props are in spec. Boost at 2500 rpm is pt 9 psi, stb 11 psi. At WOT, pt 2750 and stb 2650, 14 psi on both engines. The after coolers were both serviced at the same time 3 years ago.
My question is, where should I look next? Fuel pressure?
Thanks in advance and Happy New Year,
Hunter
