new C.D.I. stator & power pack, motor runs good-won't idle. idle screw on Fast Idle all the way in. will almost get there when lowering Fast Idle. choke helps when starting to sputter. adj. needles on right side of carbs measured 5 turns out, reset to 1.5 turns out, then 2.5, 3.5, 4.5. had to stop due to weather. when trailered ALWAYS flush w/muffs & run float bowls dry. are adj. needles on right side of carbs low speed adj. ? have in-line fuel filter-water seperator. where to next time I throw 'er in ? vacuum ? pees good. PT&T perfect after rebuilding motor, replacing seals & finding bad ground. Trying to find safe public storage away from x-boss, don't have yard anymore. every time I go over there, it's something new. good thing I've got all boat wiring schematics, that's next.

no, HOWEVER I'm working my way down the list. I THINK he plugged my boat & motor leads into 110a.c. & cooked my stator & P.P.(funny how they both went at exactly the same time) & my boat wiring(in-line fuses were blown) will be next to fix. tach, voltmeter, aereator, & FF(which wasn't on boat at the time) might be bad conn.s. got instrument panel pulled out. found plastic milk jug full of gas on deck one day- as a message. found new storage @ end of mo., trying to stock up on all fix data ahead of time, get all possibilities, 1 shot, all over. when it's safe, I'm gonna wail. paybacks are a MF'er.
