Adjusting Gaffrig Controls
 
I looked around a little on this site and also sent a request to Gaffrig but thought I'd also just ask here about the throttle controls. In order to maintain the same rpm, my port throttle is almost a full inch in front of the starboard lever while cruising 3500 rpm or so. Is there an adjustment procedure to align them? These were off with the stock engines too, I just lived with it but now would like them to be aligned if possible. At WOT the engine rpm's are within 150 of each other which I assume is pretty normal or acceptable? Thanks for your help.

You need to adjust the threaded ends on each side of the cable. First thing I do is make sure they are at the same position right before the secondaries crack open. If they are then they are relatively adjusted the same. Then I look at the progression of the secondary at different throttle positions. If all the same then one engine is down on a little on power.
