X2 What Lathehand wrote. I would go thru the carbs and double check evrything after finding the gaskets upside down. That was your A-HA moment right there.

Gaskets and diaphrams replaced and she pumps fuel! Everything is up and running, just need to tweak the idle. Hoping to splash her tonight. Thanks for all the help.

You putting it on the McKee Craft? Good to hear she pumps and runs.
The one time I had carb issues with mine it was flooding at the boat ramp in Homasassa at the beginning of a fishin trip. I managed to take one of the carbs off, free up the needle and put her back together. I mean end wrenches, crescent wrench and a screwdriver. Went 40 miles that day. Never had to go back in the carbs and it didn't even take a gasket set.

And so it continues...
Ran her this evening and can't get past 3/4 throttle or she dies out. Up to 3/4 everything seems okay but once I bump it past there it stalls out. Even if I just throw it WOT and back she fades and then comes back to life. Any thoughts? There is no high speed adjustment on the carbs so i don't know where to go from here. Here's where I stand... Brand new tank, fuel line, primer bulb and fuel pumps cleaned so I don't think there is a shortage of fuel. Also it won't even try WOT as if it has gas and then runs out, it just dies as soon as I move it up past 3/4. -Svence

Anyone know what the compression numbers should be on this? Just did it and they seem low, but even. Top 80, 84, 85, 80 Bottom. Could just be the compression tester (autozone loaner) but I have no idea what it should be.

Just going to keep this thread updated....
Well stator is toast and I am down two coils (might be firing might not, both tested ok, not okay, okay, not okay). Think that may be why I am not getting any power under load. -Svence
