"Fabulous discussion board. Ha

"Fabulous discussion board. Has given me lots to think of. Bought this beast earlier this year and have done 400 nautical miles with it.
Has a similar problem, not obtaining full revs and also a fuel problem somewhere. I am slowly doing little bits at a time so that I can still use the boat and justify the expence. I want to check the valve clearances and new timing belt before I tune too much more. Have changed fuel, hoses, filter, fuel pump and cleaned out and balanced the carbs. Starts and runs sweet. I noticed the float settings were not identical so I think this could be a problem, could someone e-mail me the diagram for setting height from the SELOC manual?.
Once I have done the timing belt I will go the hot spark route. I haven't really had much spark problems but a new coil is on the list too. Like the good old days adjusting points again.
18 foot that will sit at 3800 with 21 knots
It is looking promising for the future."
