Hey! I just had my carb rebuilt. I threw it on lats night and fired my boat up. It ran a bit rough but smoothed out. The guy said I would have to adjust the choke and mizture screws. Choke looks good. I am wondering if a do a few adjustments on the screws then maybe it would run even smoother. How do I do that. I know if I screw them all the way in the motor will stop. (did that already). Any advice would be great.

Re: Mixture screws adjustments!

I don't know what carb you have there, but typically you turn the mixture screws in slowly till you find that spot where the engine begins to run rough, then back the screw out just to where it smooths out, you do this alternating back and forth between the two, you should end up with both screws the same amount of turns from lightly seated.
