Ok, I have 2 of these skis and I rebuilt the carbs in both. (One has a new SBT motor in it :) ) Now, I've set the hi/low speed jets to match the specs in book. They are both doing the same exact thing. While testing these on the hose, they both have the top of the f/a off so I can view oil flow. I'm not sure if the extra air getting in has an impact?
Question 1: How far do the jets have to screwed in before I count the turn out. I turn them in as far as the black tabs on the outside allow me, but if I wanted to, I could force them in further, prior to turn out?
Question 2: Both purr like kittens when I start them up and idle for 5 minutes on hose. If I give them throttle they sound great until the transition to high speed (3k-4k rpm) then they sound garbled for a second or so then sound great at 6k-7k rpm. Turning the high speed screws in/out seemed to make no difference.
Question 3: After about 7 minutes of the hose, the rpms drop from 2700-3000 to 1000-1500 ?
Question 4: I was watching the carbs on one of the skis, I'm relatively new to how these things function, does the gas drip out of the center of the carb? It looks like it to me. And the oil dribbles down the side. I ask this about the gas, because it looked like my mag cylinder was not getting any gas if that's the case....
