BOB a pint too much for how many gallons?<br /> - I suggest you "fogging" the engine. It's<br />the best prior to carb and then idle adjustments. A half a can of the cleaner down<br />the 2 carbs is enough.<br /><br />------------------

BOB, the oil doesn't seem too much. Burn off<br />almost as many gallons as a pint takes then fill it up. {Here I'm thinking liters}<br />Mercury Quicksilver has a good fogger.<br />I've used auto carb cleaner spray but be upwind and hold your breath when doing it.<br />Then undo IDLE SPEED so its running only on the carbs at around 800 rpm. IDLE MIXTURE should be 1 + 1/4 turns + or- 1/4 turn.<br />{My carbs are strange--- 1/2 turn each}<br />Then IDLE SPEED should be raised to prevent stalling at gear engagement.<br /><br />------------------
