My 2002 90 ELPTO idled just fine. I used clean 87 Ethanol, Pennzoil Premium semi-syn TC-W III oil, kept Sea Foam in the fuel (1 oz per gallon) and kept fresh plugs in the engine. Per the manual, idle was to be set (knurled idle screw on throttle arm which changed timing advance to obtain correct reading) at 675 +/- 50 rpm....idea was fast enough to keep the engine running but slow enough to ensure clean shifting with minimum gear crunching.........as Faz said, in the water, in F gear, boat in motion....like do it while you are in the harbor's no wake zone.
High speed jets are fixed. Low speed jets are stated to be set for minimum fuel value that will allow the engine to take the throttle when you firewall it in the hole shot....course lots of variables here and one is your trim position. Your best bet (opinion) is to have a usual trim position for your hole shots and use that position for your adjustment. Hull shape, boat load and distribution are the other major players assuming the hull isn't algae coated, or full of Barnacles.....assuming the engine is in good tune.
