Hey all! So I recently bought a 1972 Evinrude fisherman (6hp) on the cheap, and I runs great when the throttle is set between "start" and "fast". Even starts on one pull when cold. But as I turn the throttle closer to "start" it putters and dies.
I've already done a decarb and spray carb clean as well as change the spark plugs. It smokes like crazy too, even after fiddling with the rich/lean knob.
Just hoping someone could point me in the right direction as to what to try. I've read all of leeroys ramblings, but this is my first outboard to diagnose.
Thanks so much,
Trae
