Finally got my rn together and took it out last weekend for its maiden voyage. Seems like the carbs are loading up real bad at full throttle. It will pull hard out of the hole and then after a few seconds of wide open throttle it starts to bog and won't rev at all.
I was blipping the throttle then which helped clear it out a bit and it would run decent at 1/2 throttle but as soon as i went wide open it stuttered and bogged falling on its face. It would barely move in the water after that and sounded almost as if the impeller was cavitating.
My setup is a 62t lower end with a 760 cylinder, believe its a dual mikuni 44 set up with a Speedworx pipe, girdled head with 150 psi compression, and stock ebox.
Currently only has the rear vent tube hooked up on the hood, not sure if both are needed but clearence was a problem with the pipe on the front one.
Pulled the plugs out and they had alot of fuel on them which is leading me to believe its way on the rich side. Also when i fired it up to clear the water out it was blowing oil smoke like it had been sitting for years.
I'm thinking of playing with the high speed adjusters and seeing if that helps.
