GD throttle/idle speed

[timmer594]

Hello, Hatin this boat!!! Cleaned rave valves/another story :cuss: I figured I would adjust throttle since idle speed it is too low to keep them running. It seems I need to adjust idle by adjusting cable at throttle levers....well the stupid allen head screws are NOT gonna come out. Now how do I get them out OR should I just adjust at the motor end of things. So pissed from standing on my head doing the rave valves I cant think. I guess those allen screws are stainless so drilling will be next to impossible...Any tips please? Happy Holiday...thanx

First off, what kind of boat do you have? Sounds like a twin engine something! The carbs have an idle screw, I'd start there.

You should be able to adjust the idle by adjusting the screw with a "T" handle on the front (mag. side) carb. You might need to take the airbox off to see it.

What PWC do you have? It would help if we knew the model and year.

My bad. 2000 challenger. Twin rotax. Thought I read that its adjusted at the levers. No?

I'm pretty sure you have 787's so they would adjust at the carbs.

Thanx. Guess I'll do that tomorrow. Since I have to take the freakin covers off to reach that.

Before you go to all that trouble PM Dr Honda to find out for sure. I'm sure for PWC's not so sure for boats.
