Let's see....replaced the water pump good, replaced starter better, new spark plugs, new fuel pump, new cables .......rebuilt carbs per SELOC manual, replaced prop fixed spun hub...boat planes....(thanks for help all on that one.!!!)<br /><br />engine now will idle in gear, and once in a while will rev, but usually dies out at throttle up..... Manual says that the low idle adjust should be made in forward gear. I cannot take the plug screws out without the engine stalling, never mind have a chance to tweek the idle set screws.....<br /><br />Question: on carb rebuild, took out the aluminuim covers for high and low idle, but did not remove the one in the float or on the right side of carb as you face the motor. Seloc manual does not mention doing this....is this right?<br />thinking fuel starvation I placed a clear in line filter in the line....1/2 to 3/4 full...is that right?<br /><br />Motor sat two years before i bought it....and starts great....just won't go did change gas, tanks, the works
