Hello Everyone
It's my first post on the forum,
My name is Gord and i live in Hamilton Ontario, Canada
i hope to be of help to others as much as i can...
I enjoy fishing and that's why i have the boat....
I recently picked up an 87 Suzuki DT20 outboard
I can't get the primer bulb to harden?
also flooding the plugs, i've adjusted the float a bit and it's helped, but it still won't idle
the carb is a Mikuni Carb and i've googled it but can't find any info on it...
anyone know how to adjust the carbs? I had a buddy who's an outboard motor hobbyist (old johnny-rudes) look at it, and we couldn't figure it out...
also had it on the boat this weekend and was only getting about 6mph out of it...
it has good spark and 110 compression on top and 106 on the bottom
boat is a longshaft, but the motor is short shaft so i know that will affect performance, but i should get better speed then that
motor sounded like it was working hard also...
any help would be appreciated
Thanks
Gord
