Hi everyone I'm Dan and new to the forum looks like a great place, I need some help with the carb settings on my motor it's a 1986 I was hoping someone could tell me the factory needle setting for the fuel/air mixture screw?
Thanks I have one on the way but it wont be here for a week or so and I was hoping someone would have the factory settings so I wouldn't have to wait to take the boat out.
I have a DT5 and I 'd like to know if the water coming out ot the tell tale or Pee Hole as some of you call it, should be completely cold or fairly hot, not hot enough to burn your skin but pretty warm on an engine this small. If you could check this out on your DT6 and let me know for comparison sake. I've checked the impeller and it's fine and I'm getting a good stream of water but it's pretty warm and I just want to be sure that I'm not developing an overheat problem.
Bolin ....... the water does get very hot, but not so hot that it would actually burn your hand, warm enough to touch, if you suspect it to get to boiling point, check the thermostat ......
