Hello again,
The motor is functioning well enough to get on the lake and fish! But... I seem to have a bit of trouble. I hear that this motor should top out at 5600 "ish" RPM under load, but I'm only hitting 3200-3600. It also bogs out sometimes after initially putting into gear (thinking this may be a richness adjustment?) Any suggestions on where to start looking to solve the loss of power? Thinking about a carb rebuild but I wanted to check with you guys before i get in over my head.
