What brand and HP motor are we talking about? I have a 200 hp Merc carb. that I've wondered about sometimes but every single time it ended up being this crap ethanol gas that I run through it. A treatment of Sea Foam and high octane or ethanol free gas has always fixed it. I finally learned my lesson.
She would scream with the muffs on but under a load on the water she would hesitate getting up on plane. Put ethanol free gas in and some Sea Foam...perfect. I'm a little dumb so it took me a while to actually accept the fact that ethanol really does mess up a carb motor. I imagine EFI is no different.
If the needle is clean the float should sit at normal height. IDK what kind of motor we are talking about yet. My baby is at Lee's Marine right now getting winterized and wrapped. Lee is a Mercury genius and I'm sure he could tackle any motor or point you in the right direction. I'm not sure what the forum rules are on this but just do a Google search for Lee's Marine. Tell him John Stevenson referred you.
