Reply To: RD carb woes

When you rebuilt the carbs, did you use an aftermarket kit? If you did, you did not get a new float, as Garry mentioned. You can buy an OEM kit or just the float at http://www.marineengine.com

I’ve found the bowl gasket on some aftermarket carb kits is too thick to not use the high speed nozzle gasket Garry mentioned – you may have to cut that nozzle gasket a bit thinner to make everything fit together right.
