This helped my idle and rough running condition.

I wanted to share my experience so far with working on my OMC 115 Turbojet. I rebuilt the carbs, but could not get it to run at a proper idle and it was bucking. Don't know what it is called but best describes it. On one of my other posts I got some good adivce from "boobie" I checked the jets in the carb again, and they seemed to be fine. when I remounted the carbs I smeared a little 2 stroke oil on both sides of the gasket to get a nice seal. Then I replaced the fuel lines from the tank all the way to the carbs. Then I took my time and checked every bolt on the outside of the motor. Allot of them we're loose by a 1/4 turn. After that it ran and idled like a champ. I hope this helps someone, and thanks again Boobie. Currently I am doing a decarb.
