Lever Set
How do I set carbs on outboard motor?
Got 1958 35 hp Johnson with two lever dials, bottom high speed, top slow speed. What number should they be set to for initial setting? Thanks to those who helped me before, I didnt understand the one complete turn and 1 1/2 turn, for the levers go from 1 to 6, not all the way around.
ahhh, so you haven't rebuilt the carb.......
Pull the knobs off, make your adjustments, then put the knobs back on, at #3. That way, if somebody messes with 'em, you know where it belongs.
"1 complete turn" and "1 1/2 turns" means, you start out by turning the valve clockwise until it's all the way in, then turn it counterclockwise one or 1 1/2 turns.
If it was running fine and now it's starving for fuel or flooding, adjusting the mixture isn't likely to help. If it's running lean, it's cause evaporating gasoline left a varnish in the jets. If it's running rich, it's because the float valve is worn out. Needs rebuilding.
If it's running poorly and you don't know why, compression test and spark test are the first two troubleshooting steps.
Good luck.
