what did the mechanic do to the motor? what are the RPMS at idle and WOT? what kind of spark plugs do you have? is it still rough and sputter at idle?

yes, timing could be the problem .... but first we need to find out more about the boat and setup ...

your english is ok... at first i thought you were from my part of the world.. hahhaha im originally from Romania....

hummmmm WOT?? ( whats means>>?? jaja sorry...LOL ( with out trottle?? maybe??). not in iddle the motor goes under looow rpm... sparkplugs are the same than use for last two years. but not more than.. 20 hours on it...
what he did hummm Is really hard to explain.. he "said" some spring/shaft/ or something like that. that was soo dirty something realated with backwardor forwards.. i dunno. he said the motor has it really good compression. , and sound really good.. despite of old is it.. ( 1969)....
any clues..?
BTW yestrday I lunch it.. and fire up in my 4 intend.. but barely keep iddle. , repeat so loooow RMPs..
