With the ear muffs and not a ton of throttle i think i have succeeded. She idles smoothly, and no longer stalls at idle or when i throttle up. The unfortunate this is that i found a washer that i failed to replace when ii sat down for dinner. I will re-install that tomorrow and do a sea-trial. Thanks for all the help guys. I really appreciate it, this is what SB is all bout.

Everything is better on the rocks.

rob- now that's she running the best thing you can do is to run some premium fuel with sea foam additive- cleans everything from in the fuel/combustion system.

I used premium and did the Sea Foam, it came highly recommended by the marina guys.

I run Yamaha Ring-free in mine. Every time I put gas in I put in an oz or 2. I have done this with both of the Yamis I have owned and never had a fuel problem. I also have a heavy duty 10 micron fuel water filter that I change every 100 hours.
