hello everyone i need some help on my 1981 merc 85 horse. I need to know the right way to raise the idle on my motor. it idles a little slow and when i put it in gear it dies. runs great if i can keep it running long enough to put it an gear. i adjusted the throttle cable it seems to be doing the trick but is this bad or is there a better way like adjusting the carbs maybe i dont know.please help and thanks a lot

Re: idling problems

You need to do a link & sync. The instructions are in your manual.
