Re: please help

i've heard some people say you should set the idle in forward gear on the lake, maybe they set it in the bucket, the carb settings probably are better when set on the water also.

Re: please help

Film495 is right it should have final settings done while on the boat. This way the motor is under load rather than free wheeling on muffs or in a barrel. Best of luck. Rick.

Re: please help

The carburetors could be fine; you may be dropping a cylinder. Run your compression and spark tests correctly to be sure.
