Thanks, Phil. The engine has to get used more, too, which I hope to do next year. I have a mooring for it now I just have to get it up to where it belongs.

Any thoughts as to why I only have idle speed in reverse? Not that i would want to go very fast in reverse.

Also, there's the distance in throttle position between the place when the transmission is in gear and the position when acceleration begins. Have cables slipped inside the throttle/shift housing?
