My friends 1985 70 hp evinrude is spitting gas from the top low pressure, idle jet. I was told that he has had the carburetor rebuilt a couple of times. From the amount of build up of old fuel down the front of lower section of motor and front of bracket completely covered with years of old fuel. It's has been spitting gas for years.
Now, question is, put rubber plug in each of the 3 carburetors low idle Jets and that stopped the gas from spitting out and idles the same. Forgot to mention adjustment screws were screwed in bottomed out, almost stripped heads of screws trying to get them out. Will plugging these Jets hurt anything?
