Hello all,
I recently purchase a pontoon with a Johnson 9.9 (2001). The side mount control box looks like every other one I've seen, but this one has a knob located under the key. I assume it's some kind fine tuning adjustment for the outboard, but I'm not sure. I've messed around with it, and now I'm not a 100% sure where it started, and the outboard only runs at high choke, and then dies at idle when you take the choke down. Considering it ran well before I messed with the knob, I'm hoping this is my problem.
Can someone confirm this is an idle adjustment knob? Also, what's the procedure for zeroing it out and tuning it from there?
Thanks for any help!
Todd
