Re: adjust carb help

According to the parts breakdown I was looking at your carbs have fixed jets, no adjustments needed.
What is your model number?

NEUTRAL, you have on the starboard side of the carbs, an idle mixture screw, start with all 3, carbs, at 4 turns out from lightly seated. adjust only one carb at a time. 1/8 of a turn, allow 15 seconds for the motor to catch up.

once running smoothly, use you idle speed adjustment screw to set idle RPMs 650- 800 rpms. as slow as you can get it, and not stall when in gear
