hello again.
the mechanic is coming again to Tune the carburetor..
there is two idle needle adjustment on my carburetor for the Air and Fuel Mixture..
Question is. he will tune the carburetor on land. not on the water which will not put any load on the PROP..
Well ones the mechanic tune the carburetor and runs great on LAND. and if boat runs through the water slowly and sputtering which i assume its rich and if dies after after 10 or 20 feet its to lean..
to fix this problem do i have to adjust the two idle needle adjustment or i could just turn the screw which open the butterfly just a little?
i also assume If boat runs through the water slowly and sputtering because is to rich then i really have to turn the idle adjustment ?? or i could also fix this problem by adjusting screw which open the butterfly ???
