I have had a lot of help from you guys on this motor, thanks a ton! It's running pretty good, had some bogging issues this weekend but we ran some carb cleaner through the carbs and it seems to be running better (on land). Hopefully we'll get it out on the water this weekend and see if we've solved that problem. I'm concerned about the idle. When I pull the throttle all the way back to the start position it will stall. I think it just needs to be adjusted but the service manual doesn't say much about it. How do I adjust that? Check out the video, it stalls right at the end from pulling the throttle all the way back. Does the motor sound ok to you guys? It seems to be pretty rough (shaking the whole boat) until you throttle up. Is that normal and I'm just worrying about it too much?

Thanks for all the help guys!

I kinda get the feeling I'm worrying to much. Or I've used up my help tokens :)
