Default Question on Hamilton 212

What kind of maintenance, other than shooting a little grease on the fittings, should be done to my jet ? I have no problems other than a little forward crawl in "zero speed position" BTW it's 4 years old and 110 hours..Thanks for any answers..Jack

A couple shots of grease every 30 hours is about it. Pay attention to your RPM's. If you see your rpms are creeping up a bit it may be due to wear inthe ring or impellor.

As general rule, wide open throttle should be around 4000 to 4200 rpms no matter the engine.
