mercury outboard trouble help

[razzmatazz51]

Carbuerator cleaned and motor runs at normal and higher but wont idle. Every time I idle and put in forward everything dies. Took to a boat shop open about a year and he didn't seem to know diddly squat. Idle adjustment? Gear cable issue? Older model with upgrade.

Probably carb idle mixture adjustment. What motor are you asking about?
