Ok.. New (used) carbs are on order. Found a really nice set of 200 carbs (2 screw butterfly plates) off a 1990 200hp Johnson. Made an offer, got all 6 at a really good price.. complete set, bodies, bowls, throttle plates and linkage. Should have it before next weekend.




Lets see what happens... Who knows, maybe I'll make the fall bluefish/striper run... <sigh>

DAMN Skools... You never said you had some available... :( I'd have made arraingements with you in a New York minute. I was looking for the 225 carbs, but the only set I was able to find on eBay ...the guy doesn't answer his phone, emails etc.. so I finally got disgusted and bought the 200's. I'm truly sorry.

My hopes are that some time in the future I can find 2 good carb bodies and upgrade the motor back to a 225. So I plan on keeping the unburned units. The two burned units I was going to probably just throw out. If you want them they are yours for the postage...Just let me make sure I have a functioning engine before I ship them out.

Update:
Installed the carbs, still getting (as expected) spitting from the numbers 1 and 6 carbs.
Ordered new reeds from Chris Carson Marine Services.... www.chriscarsonmarine.com
Price is $130 for a set, including postage. Gonna try them out and see how they fly. Not your average set of Boysen reeds. Should be here and installed by Wed of next week.
