I have messing with extreme rich issue with
both engines, found carbs over flow maybe
Leaking power valves or etc.
Also one engine spark sensitivity wich
Could cause wrong settings of distributor
trigger mechanisms (engines has locked timing).
Those need to solve to the end after that
There will be hard runs and on going updates...
at least hope so...

The trigger really has setup problem.
And that problem has been there as
Long as that distributor/setup has been
in the engine long before i bought the boat.

Sparks keep flying wrong sylinders when
trigger has been in wrong setup.

Problem has solved now and none backfires

Its working,

Standing rods are the gate, direct driving on it.

Quite simple sturcture. It based two laminated structural timber 40ft long.
It works with air, air out its go down and can drive on it.
Air in to those IBC containers and it goes up.
