Re: Electric shock from trim switch
OBJ, <br /> Yes, the wires pass through a small hole into the handle. I have not had a chance to disect it yet. Another question for you.-- Have you any experience with a bad recirculation check valve on the crankcase behind the carbs on 200hp? My engine seems to load up and skips and misses slightly on holeshots after idling for just a few minutes. If I run it and pull back to idle, then try another holeshot, it leaps out hard like it ought to. I have slowly been checking things and found the recirc check valve behind #3 carb not working. I removed it and found that the innards were gone. The other 5 checked OK. I have only had this boat since December and it has always seemed to run rich up to about 25-2700. I have also ohmed out the coils and found a bad one of those. The manual states to start at 2-1/2 turns on the air bleed screws and that if more than 2-1/2 turns are needed to get a good idle, then look at changing the air orifice. My screws seem best at about 4-3/4 to 5 turns out, which puts me right at the recommended max from initial start. I am wondering if your experience may have turned up a bad check valve, and what symptons did you see.<br />Thanks in advance for your help.<br />SGC
