Hi,
I have recently acquired a 25 hp mercy and it runs good at all rpm ranges except once in a while it will make a loud screech/chirp. Almost like a smoke alarm that's dying but louder. The noise lasts a second and the motor barely sputters and continues to run normally. This happens at idle maybe 3 times I'm out. Is this "lean sneeze" from a gummed up idle circuit or something else? Can the carb be removed and cleaned without adjusting timing after?
Thanks
