7.5 Eska throttle Question

[CheapboatKev]

Had the skiff at the river yesterday, had no throttle.
Lift the hood and see that the linkage is disconnected.
Cut off the barb of a fish hook and used as a make shift cotter pin..Now the question..

The rod above the carb..all the way left is the STOP position, and fully out to the right is FAST, correct? I didnt exactly "sync" the linkage with the tiller.

Also seemed to have flooded her badly and actually never got her running..Which burns me as she ran exceptionally well a few weeks ago..

Will tinker with it in a bit..
Thanks!

yep, just make sure the trottle plate pin is moving along the timing cam through out the throttles range of movement

Thanks Mr.Crabs.
That is the round thing above the carb, with a rod that goes up towards the head?

I lost the manual you sent..what a numbskull
