    1989 J70TLCEM dropping cyl.

    When cold starting the 70 is not firing on one cyl. If I speed it up after a bit it will pick up the cyl. and idle OK. After the engine is warmed up it runs OK. Back firing through carbs!!

    1989 70HP idle

    Fresh powerhead good compression. Ran great till yesterday while out on Erie. Started idling rough up to about 2500 RPM's then it runs great. To get it back to the ramp {idle zone} I had to keep hitting the primer in doing so it would idle up for a bit then again start to die. Sounded like it...

    70hp carbs?

    Was wondering what the difference is between 1984 0394810 carbs and 1989 early prod. 0431982 carbs. Trying to get the 89 to idle better.

    70HP carb compatability?

    I have a 1989 70TLCEM with fixed jet carbs, found a set of 1984 70hp carbs with adjustable jets for cheap. Will these work on my 1989 with no preformance loss? My carbs need a rebuild as I am sure the 84's do also.
