    Motor won't idle

    Hey guys!! I have an 87' Checkmate - Merc outboard 135 6 cyl. The engine won't idle. I can out it in neutral but it won't idle. HELP!!!! I got a rope tangled in mt prop earlier in the day but it ran fine and would idle all day. I doesn't make any wierd noises either. Does it need an adjustment...
