Just bought a force 90 on a 17' sprint fish & ski runabout. Maiden voyage ran rough after running ok on muffs. Took to shop for general tune-up but in the water idles rough up to around 1200 rpm, then clears it's throat and goes. What's up with this motor.

On a 1990 Force where is the Gas/Mixture screw located on carburator, also where is the Air screw. I don't see any screws on all three of my carburators.
