Hello all,
I am in the process of trying to line up the oil injector pump. I understand that I need to set the idle screw first. I do not have a tachometer, and am trying to get an idea of how exactly to adjust the idle screw prior to where it will run around 3000rpm out of the water (just in the neighborhood) so I can fine tune it when on the lake for 1100rpm. If I screw it all the way in towards the carb, any idea about how many turns I would back it out to be in the ballpark? I could not find anything in the manual other than for the low adjuster and the high adjuster.
Speaking of the low adjuster, the manual says 1 turn, but I have found several posts on this forum in which knowledgeable people have said 1.5. Just wanted to confirm that 1 is correct per my non-oem manual?
Once I have the idle screw set, I have a question regarding the setting of the oil injector alignment. I have not messed with the bleed screw so I will leave it alone for now. My question is, when I line the notches up in the below picture (not my photo), is this WITH or WITHOUT the throttle depressed? Thank you much.
Recap:
1) Number of idle screw turns from all the way in to backing out to get into approximate appropriate setting?
2) Low speed adjuster with stock configuration - 1 or 1.5?
3) Oil injector notch alignment done with or without throttle depressed?
Thank you
