Sweet ride...

Can someone tell me what he's fiddling with on the dash at 1:07?

Dude turns a knob clockwise and it seems to lose lope and lean out....then flips a lever at 2:19 which returns to lope.

Goes through motions again but quicker as if things are now set.

This has me puzzled. Timing, electronics, actual lean/rich control???

Whatever it may be, he sure has that tub tuned nice 'n tight. :action-smiley-035:

That's the fuel shut off, he winds it in to lean it out at idle, and pulls it back out before he pops the throttle, mechanical injection is so responsive that it has to be fat at idle to keep up with the initial hit of the throttle. We have the same one on our boat
