The cowling has 9.9 on it but I believe it to be 15hp. Model B100S s/n 1300635. Motor was very clean. I cleaned the carb anyway and it run fine. Set about a week now won't start or may run for a few seconds. How many turns open should the needle value be open. Also the pee hole only has a very fast drip not quite a steady stream. Is that about right or not? What is top rpm's for this motor. Will it over rev if run in a tank in neutral? In forward gear will the prop keep the rpm's down in normal range. This kind of motor is all new to me so any help or suggestions would be great Thanks P.S. Found the problem in cleaning the carb I put the float on upside down, therefore gas level was to low (dumb-de-dumb, you can see I need all the help I can get) It still appears to over reving and unsure of water volume.
