    Does anyone know the Idle mix screws factory setting for a 2003 vmax 150?

    Re: vmax carb adjustment (catfish621)

    I will check in the morning and see if my manual covers a 2003. I'm at work right now. I think my 1990 ProV goes 1-1/4 turns out on the port and 3/4 on the starboard side.

    Nope, it looks like my manual only covers 1990.....but the 1990 150D went 1-1/4 turns out on both port and starboard. I'd bet that yours are close to the same. Did you run them in to see how far they turned before they bottomed out? If you do, be careful not to "tighten" them down. You don't want to damage the seats. Just turn them in until they stop.

    Thanks for checking. The port side weren't in as far as the starboard side. My manual doesn't list the vmax specifically.

    That's the way my ProV is. Only 3/4 out on the starboard and 1-1/4 turns out on the port.
