Can't say exactly but I confirmed the timing was advancing far beyond the original at 2500 rpms, I did it on the trailer in neutral just to make sure it worked.
Lake test showed that everything from what the eye can see was functioning properly,
The choke fully opened
The secondary air valves opened under heavy load
The Primaries were opening as well.
It's got to be a clogged filter somewhere right?
I noticed on the lake yesterday the boat never got warmer then 130°F, could my whole problem stem from it running to cold, making the choke not fully open and not allowing it to create enough vacuum to open the secondary air valves?
I have a pretty decent understanding of how most of the stuff works.
Not hugely familiar with carbs though.
But the motor has good compression, has good spark, and is correctly timed as well. And was on the lake for 8+ hours yesterday and go around good, just underpowered and doesn’t have the...
Okay, I should have sinkers, what does the weight of the sinkers show you?
Will take a video though while I do it so you guys can make sure I do it correctly.
Does it look like the link coming out of the vacuum break is just slipping on the thing that rotates the secondary plates?
Because even when I’m giving it Vaccum the secondary plates do not move at all.
Here is a video of the linkage:
Feels like that Vaccum break isn’t working just based on the fact that when I push it in and let it out the secondaries don’t open.
