I have a 1970 20 hp Johnson. It ran fine last year when parked. I left the gas connected( had marine stable) mixed in with it. Got it out day to make sure running good. It started easy with new plugs but was smokeing hard so I dumped the gas, drained fuel line and fuel bowl. Got new gas and mix. It's still smokeing a lot, sputters, and I'm getting some unburnt fuel and oil in my test tub. Tried adjusting the needle valve how I read it on one of the links here. I didn't get a noticeable response while adjusting it. I ended up screwing it all the way in and it was still running. Shouldn't the needle all the way in stop the gas flow?? Think I need to rebuild the carb
