Default OS60SR Running problems

Hi Bob and Dave,

Well I suspect that you would like to hear some good news? Well like a dream it worked. One full turn plus 2 clicks and it was running like a dream.

Just to paint some more of the picture because that's not all I found. It has been some time since I've heard this running 'cause part of the problem was ME hearing the noise. When it was 'Screaming' it was only just above idle really. It sounded excessively noisy to me but once I got used to it, it wasn't really a scream after all, just loud, (If that makes sense?) Also, I thought that I had the carby closed enough to be on idle but I have found that I was starting the boat with too wide a carby and that you only need the smallest minutest opening to have the thing on idle. ALSO, finally, it really does let loose without load on it and every now and then gets a 'Vibrating' sound, quite excessive, although I am hoping that this is the running gear now. Something else to look for :-)

So guys, I shall sail it this arvo and make good use of my last days holday before work again on Monday. I really enjoyed this and you'll see more of me in here :-)

Again, thanks,

Martin, having a squizzy, this arvo, at the Boat From Hell !!!! (May even take my camera)
