Changed the plugs, dist caps and rotors on both motors. started them up after each step and checked that the motors were running fine. They purred like kittens even up to 3000 RPM, As I was just letting both idle for a few minutes before cleaning up, the starboard motor backfired and stopped. I checked for any crossed spark plug wires but it looks fine. Took the new dist cap off and looked for cracks but it looks good. Started it again and it idles perfectly smooth for a few seconds then backfires and stops, Also, the fuel pump is much louder than the port motor. Its probably something I did but cant find it right now.
Any ideas on what to check would be appreciated.
Thanks
Bill
