Agreed that 1000 RPM at idle does not sound right. From: David Knecht via CnC-List Sent: Thursday, December 07, 2017 7:44 AM To: CnC CnC discussion list Cc: David Knecht Subject: Stus-List Engine idle speed
All this discussion of engine (Universal M4-30) starting has reminded me of something I want to do in the spring, but am not sure how to approach. My engine runs fine at idle, which is around 1000rpm (don’t remember exactly what gauge reads). If I shift into reverse it almost always stalls. If I advance the throttle slightly, it does not stall. This is obviously a real problem when docking as I can’t count on slowing down when I need to without restarting the engine. So the question is: what is how to advance the idle speed slightly? I can imagine doing this at the Edson lever end or the engine end and not sure which is the right or best way to do it.
