Re: Should I attempt carb rebuild or let marina deal with it???
I agree with both posts above. I always do my own work and I'm no professional mechanic, let me tell ya. With the help of my Seloc manual (which confuses me sometimes) and the guys on this board I usually get my problems straightened out.
I just rebuilt my carbs, nothing more than a good cleaning, a couple gaskets, and replacing the inlet needles. Oh yeah, adjusting the floats too, which was not that difficult once I figured it out.
I still have doubts though that I have everything exactly right which makes Jerry's post spot on. I do feel that I can dial it in though with the help of this board and more education on my part.
I'd say go ahead and do it yourself. If you really don't feel that comfortable removing everything, at least make sure the throttle plate is open all the way on the carbs when you are on full throttle on your remote control. Check linkages as well. Also, John from MD has explained in another post how to attempt to clean the carbs without taking them off.
