I just rebuilt twin AQ145s after one shattered a valve shim. Both back together;
port eng- starts but won't keep going....seems starved for fuel, pumping throttle can save a stall, but I can't get it to run smooth. New gas, carbs rebuilt, adjustments as per manual, 1 1/4 turn on mix screw, accelerator pumps working.
Stbd eng- No spark. Timing light on coil wire is dead, won't start.
I replaced rotor, cap, coil, Spark plugs and wires. Reset gap and advance, 10degrees on both engines.
There is power at the coil, but nothing to the distributor. :confused: Any ideas?
