Hey Dave, everything seems to be in good order inside the remote shift box. I think I may have figured out what the issue was. I think when I rebuilt the carburetor I may have put the
stop adjustment screw that goes on the little rod that goes from throttle rod to the carburetor in the wrong place. Now when I push the remote throttle lever forward to maximum the throttle valve is in the wide open position and seems to stay there. I was going to test it out on the water today but it started raining here. We really need the rain so I can’t complain too much. I’ll let you guys know how it goes when I get it in the water!
