Have twin 140's in my 73 Sea Ray project. Put them back in after all the work and hooked the cables back up to both. At WOT on the control the butterfly inside both carbs appears to be only 1/4 open at the most. I have messed with the adjustments on the linkage between the throttle cable and the carb and cannot get better then 1/3 to 1/2 open while still being able to close it all the way when I pull the remote back to neutral. I have the factory manual on my computer and cannot find anything on how to adjust the carb linkage, or should I be looking at the remote control? Bought the boat and other then checking that the engines ran, went right into the restoration. Don't know what the PO did to it. Seems odd that both carbs are opening the same minimal amount.
Thanks in advance.
