[QUOTE="GYPSY400, post: 472477, member: 8599"] It is the nature of the beast. 2 things you can try: Replace the thermostat and tune the carburetor appropriately, so it can run as lean as possible.. if its running cold all the time it wont burn fuel efficiently. Run 100:1 mix when trolling with good synthetic oil. This topic will stir up some debate but I feel that the oils nowadays can sufficiently lube at 100:1.. you can run a second fuel tank that you use during trolling, and then switch back to your main 50:1 for high speed runs..
