i have a few questions on setting the low speed needle back to stock settings. am i supposed to turn the needle all the way until it gets tight or do i turn it only so far before itsfulley closed? this is the only motor i am having trouble with finding the close position on the low speed needle. all my other motors i can do it just fine but this one has stumped me. any sugestions?
thanks

Turn it all the way in but not tight then bring it out 2-1/2 turns.

ok we got it running good but one more question is there any reason that the boat runs slower making a left hand turn than a right hand turn?

Nope, you've got me on that one. Usually in turns the engine may wind up higher as it is freeing up the prop. Do you hear the engine revving higher and going slower?

no the engine seems to run a bit slower in rpms going left and it slows the whole boat down for some reason
