We had both a 7.5 and 9.8. As a kid, I used to take the 9.8 and leave the 7.5 for my dad. haha. Even just the sound of this running brings back some very fond memories. Thanks for posting. :)

Thunderbolt 110 are closer to 12 horsepower. In 1984 the regulations changed for Dyno testing outboard motors, because some of the manufacturers were under-rating their engines to beat the competition

Hello, what kind of mixture do you make for your engine? What fuel connection do you have that goes into the engine? Regards

50:1 will do it. As for connector, just the usual strange looking mercury connector from 80/90’s motors

My ‘82 110 thunderbolt on a 12ft v-hull Klamath will do 34kph, no idea what that is in nots but its got plenty of power for a 9.8

Agreed. 16kts = 30kph so that’s close and more than fast enough for a little tin boat.

What blade prop do you have on? I have the exact same motor and am only getting 13.5 mph, if I convert kt correctly you are around 19 mph. Anything else you have done to achieve the higher speeds?

It's even worse this year for me, past weekend I was only getting 11 MPH. I have to find the rpm range of this motor, I bought a tach for it. I'm half wondering if it just needs to be tuned properly. Or the motor is just getting old.
