Kanaloa is back up and running with her one new and one old engine. Anyone ever adjust the cables to sync the throttles on a twin engine boat?

unless you have only 1 throttle control for two engines no need to synchronize anything? As long as the new engine idles close to the same rpm as the other one & goes to the WOT stop, your good to go. :thup
 
Conrad, your OB's are much bigger than mine but you can probably tell when you are running in sync by the sound. If they are close but not in, you will get a thrumming sound, up, down, up, down. I have noticed on mine that the sound can diminish even if the tach RPMS are not at exactly the same level. Whenever the "thrumming" was gone, I figured they were in sync.
