I recently rebuilt both of my carbs for a 96 GTI with the OSDMarine kit that specifies no need to set popoff pressure (return to OEM kit i believe). At the time I rebuilt my carbs I thoroughly went through and cleaned everything. Yesterday, I started the engine fine by pouring a splash of gas into both carbs. Ski kept idle at a decent spot, was a little high. At this point I added the manifold back on and arrestor screen and was able to start the ski without pouring more gas into the carb throats. I didn't finish setting the idle speed yesterday, so I went back today to adjust it further. Was able to get it to start once, but the ski died a few minutes after starting, at low rpm. I did notice after it died that the pto side carb was emitting vapor from the throat, upon removing the arrestor to see better in there.
I went ahead and shot the below video to describe the current operation better. The orientation of the camera shows the left carb (pto side) and right carb (mag side). The right carb has presumably no issue feeding gas into the cylinder. The left carb, however seems to have difficulty. With the arrestor screen installed, after spinning the engine and removing the arrestor screen i can see that both carb throats are soaked with gas.
I'm not sure if either of these carbs are putting out what they should. Is this something I can adjust with screws or am I looking at opening these carbs up again?
