GWe thanks Griff for the most intelligent and spearheading thread it just excites the hell out of me. I really do appreciate you telling me what I will and I won’t do. Thank you. Since I have done pretty much everything that you have said with the exception of finding a number on the carburetor which seems to be your big thing, Guess I will have to find that number so that you can feel fulfilled. Since I only have one leg it’s pretty hard for me to become part of a motor enough to findThe number of the carburetor so this would excite you. Honestly, I will try two fulfill your request. Oh and if you wouldn’t mind, please send me the title of the mechanics book that shows you each step I should take just in case I forgot something that you read about.
As far as Pompano Beach to the person that told me that this would be the place to go, Thank you very much for the information. Ciao bro. Oh by the way Griff , There’s a great book that you should read it’s called classic racing engines by Karl Ludvigsen. It’s a great book and it will teach you what I already know

Is this guy for real? I WAS considering taking a little drive North to help this guy out until he turned into a dick. Good luck getting any more help from these guys with a problem that can probably be fixed in 30 minutes by someone competent.

Hey Griff, thank you for your nice calming words and none agitating sentences. Replacing parts on a carburetor was done by him and he tuned it to the best that it could be tuned. Still with no improvement.If you have a question for him I can just give you his phone number so you Can bypass me and go directly to him. Now back to the boat. after the carburetor rebuild it acted exactly the same. As far as the float bowls being set, again you can ask him I’m sure he would appreciate it.I realize this is irritating for you which it shouldn’t be since you saw the need to reiterated to the Forum about working on car since I was 12, can you imagine how I feel trying to work on motors since I was 12 and you were trying to figure out which end of the pacifier to Use since I am 76 years young? I just couldn’t resist?
Well I guess I couldn't resist either when I saw the thread from less than a year ago regarding the very same subject. When you have people that care and take the time to help resolve your issue it's best not to down play them. Especially just VERY basic trouble shooting questions. Without the short answers the thread is pointless. BTW... I doubt Griff even had a pacifier but rest assured I guarantee he knows how old he is!!! 😂
