    Johnson 40hp 2005 link and idle adjustments

    Remove the nut then you will need a puller. I use an old steering wheel puller and three 1/4 inch screws. Don't be afraid to hit the top of the puller to get it to release.

    Johnson 40hp 2005 link and idle adjustments

    Have you pulled the flywheel? If so besides looking at the key you could see if the plate is not moving back all the way. More pictures of all sides of the motor might help to see why this is not working per factory specs.

    On mine it breaks the power pack ground but I believe you can break both coil grounds to do the same thing.

    Perhaps the needles where screwed in to far and they were flattened. Not sure if you can see this but there are other adjustments. Did you loosen the screw on the carb just below the idle circuit? https://photos.app.goo.gl/Y9yyKvmzzszXxo8a6

    This particular carb has a primer nipple on top and no draw tube inside the carb....either way fuel going up through the carb is different than I'm used to. Setting are out of spec so something is wrong here.

    Well unless race is about to elaborate more, the carb forms a venture and by letting in more air more fuel is drawn, in this case, to the idle circuit which yes is located on the top of the carb appears to pull from the primer. Not as familiar with these carbs.

    96 Evinrude 50 Cutting Out

    Some motors have the two wire overheat sensor and the diode in the harness goes out putting it in to limp mode or low RPMs. Your model doesn't have that sensor but someone could have changed it I guess. Easy to confirm, on the head is a sensor with a tan wire coming out of it, if it has a...

    By spinning the idle circuit clockwise it's more lean, by unscrewing it....it makes it more rich, so not sure what your talking about.

    Referring to the link and sync of the carburator opening at just the right moment of the timing. The throttle cable should be unhooked until that is achieved. Not sure how that would make the carb want so much fuel but maybe.

    Not sure without seeing more. Primer and intake could also be leaking. I assume when your checking the syncing that the throttle cable is disconnected?
