Hello again.
I recently did some carb work (thread here http://forums.iboats.com/forum/engin...-carb-help-pls )
Now the boat runs/works great other then the very low idle/slow speed. It stalls out at low speed, no - load idle is ok (not perfect) but in gear I need to blip the throttle to keep it running. It stalls often at low speed making navigation in tight quarters difficult. On the throttle and at speed it runs flawlessly up to max RPM/WOT. Carb is a single Solex 44 PA1
I have tried all of the idle/low speed adjustments in the manual. (I have the factory manual and the solex carb manual). It really doesn't make much of a difference either way.
I was METICULOUS in the carb disassembly cleaning.
Any pointers for me to start troubleshooting the bad low speed/idle issue, keeping in mind it"s running perfect under every other condition.
Thank you!
