Hello. I recently purchased a 1993 Evinrude 9.9hp tiller engine that has difficulties idling. I completely disassembled the carburator and cleaned out the bowl as well as the intake ports but it didn't seem to help. Everytime I start the engine, a large cloud of smoke comes out (the engine revs up) and I also notice an oily substance coming out of the exhaust and down by the prop (not lower unit oil). I can keep the motor running if the motor is slightly throttled but as soon as I go down to idle speed the motor winds down and eventually stalls. I feel like the motor is running too rich but I am not sure. I have a fishing trip coming up so I don't have time to order the manual. If someone could help me out that would be great!
Thanks.
Thanks.
