New to me 1985 Johnson 115 wants to die when going in gear. From what I read this could be caused by a low idle speed and I hope to get back to the lake Friday to see if I can adjust the idle if that appears to be the problem. I have searched and read a lot on the subject but I am far from sure I understand so your help is much appreciated.
Do I adjust the idle using the threaded rod at the red arrow? If so which direction to increase idle?
Do I need to give slack at the Green arrow and then snug it down once the idle is correct?
Or straighten me out altogether...
