Hi, I just finished rebuilding the carbs on my 1975 85hp johnson. I noticed when I took them apart that the float drop adjustment was allowing the float to drop 1 1/2" instead of the 7/8 to 1 1/8" the specs call for. Just curious ,but how would this affect the motor running? It was running good before I rebuilt the carbs but wouldn't go past 4700 rpm's. I think that is a prop issue though. The carbs were leaking some fuel and the bulb won't get firm is why I rebuilt them...just to rule them out.
