Default Re: carb. rebuild

Phes I would do the decarb routine MJ is talking about before I would get into the carb routine. Unless you have already done that.
I have the 99 115 johnson and I was having trouble getting to proper max rpm when I first bought the boat from Fillet1 . I bought the stuff I needed for a full decarb, did it the right way and ran a special fuel conditioner cleaner on the heavy side of the mix requirement, ran it like MJ said and it was like I white fogged the neighborhood for awhile. When I was done I put new plugs in and took it to the ocean and I was running 5600-5700 rpm no problem. Previously I was told I needed a carb rebuild by a mechanic ::) I think the stuff I have been using since is called Sea Foam to keep it from carb ing up again and keeping the carbs clean, recommended highly by several boat people and a few guys on this site
