    Never cleaned the injectors, planned to a couple years ago, but it was running fine so I didn't want to mess anything up. Will hook up a fuel pressure gauge next time I take it out to run it, it would rev fine in neutral, but I understand that free revving vs running with a load is entirely...

    1986 Yamaha 200hp Idles high.
