Before you go try it, check your engine manual to see if you have a time limited power settings. METO in airplanes is usually something like 5 minutes, my Atomic 4 can go 100% forever, and I have seen notes with something like a 1 hour limit for redline RPM on some Yanmars.

    Did my email on this show up??

    To repeat – when airplanes suffered from this we used to grab a
    snack and a full tank of gas and fly around at 100% power (or
    METO) for three hours or so.

    I would run your boat flat-out for a bit, that should help.

        Josh mentioned that cylinder glazing can occur if the engine
        is not run at 80 percent for extended periods of time. We
        motor out from the dock for 5 or 10 minutes, set the sails and
        shut down the engine. We get a fairly heavy blue smoke when
        the engine is cold.

        Question; is there any way to get rid of the glazing short
        tearing down the engine?
