Symptoms:
Very hard cold start. The only way I can get it to fire at all is to push up on the diaphragm to squirt a little fuel in, it will cycle a few times and die. If i repeat this I can feather the throttle up to high RPM. The only way I can get to idle is to turn the idle up to 1400 rpm...
I have an 2005 Honda 25 shortshaft. It's really a bit of a mess being three cylinders and 3 carburetors for only 25hp.
The motor runs ok the way it is, starts instantly and revs up decently. When adjusting the carburetors, i discovered that the bottom cylinder adjustment had no effect...
