Hello

Finally got my Tohatsu M70A2 running today. When it started the idle was too high!! I backed off the idle stop screw until things sounded fine. The information I am looking for is 1) The initial idle stop screw setting - that is how many turns out? and 2) How many turns out on the adjust screws?

I am pretty good with motor. I have a 1970 BMW air head that has a carb for each cylinder and it runs sweet. Oh that reminds me, is there a port on the Tohatsu carbs to attach carb vacuum gages? Thanks again for every one's help any suggestions.

Settings can be found in your service manual and no on the ports.
