Finally got my motor running after cleaning out the carb several times and fighting with some seals I had put in wrong. To get it to idle on it's own, I had to adjust the idle control valve to about 2 1/8 turns from seated. This is much higher than most of the suggestions I've seen of 1 1/4 - 1 1/2 turns from seated. Does this indicate any problems?
Anyway, on with the video. Here I run the motor for about 45sec. Can you tell if it sounds OK or if there are more issues I need to look into. I can't really tell with my limited experience with boat motors. Any suggestions are welcome.
