Hey guys. Its been awhile since I have posted but have kind of been away on Army business. Last summer Force 01 and TMD gave me some great advice when I had some problems following a carb rebuild job. Several outings following the rebuild I noticed the boat not running right - losing some rpm and top end. I also noticed mist coming out of the top carb throat. Suspected reed valve or stuck throat. compression was at factory spec or above in all cylinders.<br /><br />Well this spring my father took the thing over to our trusted mechanic for a tune up. What a mess. He rebuilt all carbs and tuned up the engine and now it is spitting gas out of all carbs at above 4000 RPM. Runs great at low ranges. Reed valves were not replaced. Carbs all rebuilt and adjusted to spec. Again the fuel only comes out above 4000 RPM which leads me to susect reed valves or the same mistake made on the reassembly of all three carbs. Could it be something in the fuel delivery/filtering system from the tank to the carbs? <br /><br />If any of you have had similar problems I would appreciate any input you may have. I am so screwed right now. The mechanic says he is going to make some calls but is stumped as he cannot figure it out.<br /><br />ON another note: If it is screwed beyone economically reparable I can get a nice XR6 Merc installed for a pretty good price...well mommy doesnt think the price is so good though<br /><br />Thanks<br />Deerdog<br /><br />PS: F-5, glad to hear yours turned out fine.
