If last weekend was "the break in" this weekend was "trial by fire" as the thing never stopped pulling people around.
I just pulled all 6 plugs and they came out looking all perfect. I inspected the domes (except #6 cause I couln't see it) and they all looked good - even #3 :)
My set up was "questionable" too since this motor is a pinch hitter - so I didn't go nuts. The idle screws are "as found" so far and max advance is 1/2 screw turn retarded from "as found" just to be safe. I was told it was running real good before the crank end split a the driveshaft - so I (correctly it seems) assumed it was more or less adjusted before I took it apart.
Thanks to all that helped, especially Jeff, Raceman, Rick and Sam!!

(I *will* get around to adjusting it - if it stays on the boat much longer - but it's running the balls as it is)
