22 HP Backwater Longtail Field Test

Blazing along nice and casual.🤙

[@nickb8618]

I’ve run everything from bighog, mud skipper, beavertail, prodrives, gtr, and backwater. Backwater are the nicest longtails out there to run by far! Still love the prodrives though

Best mud motor made. I have the 40hp on a 1655 and love it. I had the 22 predator on another boat. I had issues with the fuel cutting out. I put a electric fuel pump on it and then it ran like a champ. But the best performed I did was customized my exhaust and removed the governor. That's all on the 22hp. I've done nothing to the 40hp.
BTW, add a grab bar. It's well worth it

[@t-bone1890]

you have a link to the fuel pump you added?

[@cdp50359]

@@t-bone1890 I picked mine up at our local auto part store. But all you need is a low pressure, something under 2 lbs. You will have to remove the pulse pump and plug the vacuum line to do this

I’ve been wanting to build an engine for a long tail. But all the high HP custom engines have gravity fed fuel system. And they don’t run any type of alternator to charge a battery and run the pump, I’ll have to figure something out.

@@t-bone1890 the predator 22hp has a alternator large enough to charge the system, if you are referring to it.
