Smaller Air Bleed = More Gas to Motor?

[Brew]

I've got an '86 Evinrude 140 with a fuel problem (ie. the motor isn't getting enough during acceleration). I've tried many things such as cleaning carbs/jets, installing carb kits (floats, needle valves, etc), replacing fuel primer bulb, replacing fuel filter, decarbing motor, etc.<br /><br />I'm running out of things to try and thought I might experiment with replacing the intermediate jets with a different size. Would a smaller intermediate jet (air bleed?), result in less air therefore more fuel going to motor or visa versa?<br /><br />As always, many thanks in advance.<br /><br />Cheers.

Re: Smaller Air Bleed = More Gas to Motor?

read a post here that talked about installing<br />a small elec. gas pump to solve this problem<br />and give a little extra gas when needed. try<br />a search, believe it was an automotive part.<br />good luck<br />M.Y.
