Wow couldn't believe it, since the injectors were put back together by total guesstimation, I figured I'd go though a couple of batteries before it started, but the POS fired up instantly and just sat there ran. A slight adjustment on the barrel valve and the throttle was all that was needed. Of course the real test is to put a load on it. Only thing (which I kinda suspected would happen) the idle isn't as smooth as it should be due to sloppyness in the shafts. So the next thing I will do is put bushings in, that will take of that!...:good

BTW, check out the state of the art, high tech, neighbor pleasing exhaust system!....:laugh

I'll be going to Bartlett on Sat morning, you can launch right off the beach, don't have to worry about blocking the launch ramp. Since I don't have the faintest idea how it's going to run under load, I may be doing quite a few adjustments who knows?? :confused But hey, come on up, be nice to meet you guys :good  :good I'll even take ya for a ride in a real boat!.. :laugh  :laugh

KC, Good luck on the motor this weekend. ( Really ) and you guys be safe. GFR hope all runs well for you also. Hope to see you on the water soon. Hey bye the way how far are you from Yuma AZ. I'm heading back out that way to Lake Martinez for the next 3 weeks in a row after Lake San Antonio this week end. Maybe we can hook up :beer  :beer
