You can see a lot by observing ......
Went out to find my low speed jets on an 89 Merc 40. Was shining all over
around in there with a flashlight. Couldn't find them. Saw the plug on top
of the oil injector tank was loose, and went in there to tighten it. Of
course, I only knocked it off, now have to take off the tank to find the
plug which had fallen into the abyss between the tank and the intake
manifold. Which I should have done in the first place to get to the carbs.
As I look over the carbs after I have moved the tank, I notice there are two
holes through the tank specifically aimed at the jet screws. Reachable with
a thin blade long screwdriver.
HAH! Glad it was not a Ford, or I would have probably had to take off the
starter and loosen the motor mounts to do it. So, on the next cruise, I'll
set the jets. Bottomed them out, and came out 1 1/2 turns for now.
Adjusted a couple of hoses that had kinks in them from being cut too long.
Hope to take it out this weekend.
