    3.0l very high rpm on start up

    Hi I would like to thank you for all your help. I’m just a jackass and I had the shift cable on the carb and the throttle cable on the shift control. Swap everything around and all is good.

    Ok I don’t know if maybe I’m missing something. I’m new to owning a boat and also working on a motor with a carb so I could be doing something wrong.

    3.0l very high rpm on start up

    The second picture it depicting that to reach carb fully closed I still need about 1/4” to get cable onto the pin. But to get it there I would need to thread the barrel further to the left on the cable and there is no not room to go that way.

    3.0l very high rpm on start up

    Last year it ran fine at idle. This season I had to pull the motor to change the coupler and all put back together and on first start up I was having the issue with high idle.

    3.0l very high rpm on start up

    Ok I tried that and was able to get boat to idle at regular rpms. Tried to adjust throttle cable to reach pin but there is not enough room to extend to the pin at idle position. Any possibilities or do I need a new throttle cable? Thanks again.

    3.0l very high rpm on start up

    I have a 1986 seaway Seville with the 3.0l merc. I am having an issue where as soon as I start the motor it goes straight to very high rpm. I can not find any info on throttle adjustment. Any help would be appreciated. Any questions feel free to ask. Thank you.
