I am a young boater and recently purchased an '86 75 hp merc. You all were very helpful in getting it running. Thanks so much for all the ideas. Currently the motor idles well, and runs great at WOT, but I have to accellerate very, very slowly or it dies. It often dies just as I put it in gear. I have been told that the carbs are set too lean and that I should adjust the idle screws. Does this sound accurate? Is there anything else likely causing this? Thanks in advance!
