Hi all.
I'm getting punished by a little 9.9 HP Evinrude. It's a 1974 model.
It has a low speed miss and is being a real booger. I'll have to admit I'm feeling a bit hummilated and embarrassed.
Ignition system.
I installed new points and condensers, and replaced one coil. Point gap was set at .020 when the rub block was at the "set" mark on the crankshaft. It has good HOT spark, jumps about 1/2 gap. I can't detect a miss with my adjustable spark gap tester. It also has the correct brand new NGK spark plugs installed.
Fuel system:
It seems to be missing from running lean. I cleaned the carb twice. Tried a fuel pump and carb from another engine (1976 15 HP) and it still does it.
When it coughs, I can catch it with the choke to get it back up to speed.
I'm about to pull all my hair out because of this low speed miss. Does anyone have any ideas on what I'm missing? I have a video of it running posted here:
