I just purchased a pontoon boat with a 45 Honda 4strk motor. the motor doesn't seem to want to idle very well hot or cold. Idles around 400 rpms and sometimes dies. I have to use the choke lever too keep in running.

my question is, is there an idle screw on this motor or should i be looking at adjusting the throttle cable? please help. any ideas welcome
