Pull the flame arresters, advance the throttles and see if they open all the way. Easy.

I also adjusted mine sothey both hit the secondaries at the same time and marked it on the throttles, just so I know where they start to open up.

Still haven't got the picture thing figured out! There is a video of her on YouTube from before I bought her. Look up Brett Wagner dam to dam run on YouTube. I'll work on the pictures!
