Seems to run fine at speed but when I creep at idle (coming in to dock, the worst time) it dies, what do you think, Thanks in advance, Bill

Re: '92 Force 150 dies at idle

I was having the same problem and decarbed my motor. This helped considerably. If this hasn't been done before I would recommend it. It cost me about 6$ and an hour and a half of time. You can find 2 ways to do it using SeaFoam products in the FAQ section of the forum. Hope this helps.<br />Mic

Is your carburetor air/fuel mixtute and idle speed set correctly? NGK plugs seems to function better at low speeds than Champion. Ditto for the advice on decarboning!!!

When this happens to me it's usually the plugs.
