thill I agree with Ludicrous, if the initial problem happened out of the blue and you went and adjusted the fuel mix ,what in my opinion you should have done was to rebuild the carbs ,I too have a carburator motor and runs perfectly fine, but every once in a long while ,I do rebuild the carbs ,to be exact three times in ten years ,also a friend of mine with a Yamaha 150 hp carb did lose some speed at top end, but other wise was running fine, he rebuild the carbs and there was the lost rpm ,I know this has nothing to do with your problem, but if you din't touch the motor and the rpm was lower ,I think you should have rebuild instead of adjusting the idle ,I won't get a mechanic if you have the manual, is not that hard and you probably do a better job, I saw a mechanic rebuilding a set of carbs and the only thing he used from the kit was the gaskets ,he said that all he had to do is clean the parts ,witch is true ,but if the customer paid for the hole kid replace everything ,thats why I do it my self.

Tim, the 1st thing you have to admit is , You have a problem.
You Sir are a BOATAHOLIC and there is only one cure for it and that's called , A WIFE .
The wife can cure you in a heat beat and take you to just a BOATER [ One boat ] so fast it will make your head spin.
Don't forget , a soon to be ex-wife can turn you into a DECK HAND in a matter of weeks.
No Sir , right now your just a Boataholic , not a REDNECK.
Now that was funny and at the same time a very smart post

Lets hope that Obama reads Business Week.
Obama is too bussy appearing on TV to read Business Week.

I guess they lost the deal on this repair or sale ,as my dealer did with my trailer ,he quoted me a little too much in order to try to sell a new trailer and at the end he encouraged me to do the rebuild ,and I'm sure that my work is a lot better than theirs,if you don't thing so ask the customer.
