Hi Guys,
My first post, and I am frustrated!
This outboard runs great except.... I cant get the idle right.
Carb has been disassembled and properly cleaned several times...
The engine will only idle well at 3 turns out... which seems really rich... and even at 3 - 3.5 turns out I can get it to sneeze by quickly revving it up from idle. It wont even idle at 1 1/2 turns out.
If it sneezes and stalls.. it is then hard to start.
The only thing I see is the gasket between the bowl and carb body seems to be leaking slightly, but this should not affect the mixture...
Any ideas...
Thanks in advance.
