So I've been working on this basket case boat with a list of problems a mile long. The port motor has a run away idle with the pto cylinder running lean. I've tested compression 150psi on all 4, pressure tested the case, held 8 psi for 30 minutes, rebuilt all the carbs, replaced base gaskets on the motor in question, replaced throttle cable, set initial tune to oem specs on all 4 carbs only having an issue with the one cylinder. The only thing I haven't done as far as this carb goes is replace the needle and seat. Is there something I'm missing I can test on this, or maybe the rotory valve can leak on just one side. I've rebuilt quite a few 2 strokes just mostly yamahas, and tons of carbs and never had this problem before. Sorry if this has been discussed somewhere else, but I couldn't find anything, hence the post.
 
Only rebuild with Genuine Mikuni carb kits.

Always use new genuine Mikuni needles and seats and don't mess with the springs.

Finally follow the Carb Rebuild Sticky in the 2 stroke PWC section.
