[QUOTE="ATW, post: 413130, member: 12477"] Let the carb soak in Pine-sol all night and cleaned it out this morning. I installed it and did some minor throttle linkage adjusting per the OMC manual. Reinstalled everything and put the muffs on it and the boat ran considerably better on the muffs. One bump of the primer switch when cold and you can barely bump the key when warm and she fires. I was also able to throttle up a bit on the muffs (it would die before this.) Fuel leak was fixed and no more water leak in the back of the motor. Today's forecast in southern Wis. [img]https://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j276/andys_addiction/first%20run%20forecast_zpsspe6s92i.jpg[/img] I was too anxious to NOT launch the boat today! The boat ran BEAUTIFULLY. Topped out at 27mph with a 10x11 aluminum prop. I think it will do better with less wind and me playing a bit more with the trim/tilt heights. But it ran great, idled great, felt great. Here is a video of the cruise. It was BRISK out! [youtube]v8MV8TEU4UE[/youtube] [/QUOTE]
