Hello
I got it in the water and ran it for 10 min or so .. would anyone know how to lower the idle(I put new rebuilt carbs on)
it seems to be running a little fast.. also the propeller isn't in the greatest shape would that be the cause of the slight side to side shake in getting

thanks

You need to know the rpm's before you reset?
Tiny Tach works great and cheap.

Idle in gear should be about 750-800
In N should be around 1100
Some timing lights have a tach built in.
