Re: let the fun begin
Did you check the trim sender for loose wires. You've got to be getting anxious to put her in the water( I know I would be) the boat looks amazing

Re: let the fun begin
Run a jumper wire from the ground to the sender at the back of the gauge, it should peg full up if not it's your gauge. If it pegs do the same back at the sender, ground the sender wire that will eliminate the wiring, replace the sender.
Check to make sure you don't have any air leaks and the throttle plates are closing fully if that's good back off the idle timing.

i had the carbs open today, plates are closing good. how do i adjust idle timing? will i mess up the timing?
sorry for the ignorance and questioins, gotta learn somehow. thanks ahead of time
man once i got her to crank i spent the day in the drive way with the motor in the bucket neighbors were probably saying "dammit i guess this is what we gotta listen to now"varmint1 wrote:Did you check the trim sender for loose wires.
