    Full throttle in reverse little throttle forward

    Two things, Wow many times have I heard....."picked it up for cheap"? I'd be rich beyond my wildest dreams. People can pay you to take their boat and it may be to much. Tell us in a month. Second thing, if you fixed your cable issue.....let's all hear it? Couldn't quite find that in this...

    "The 3 holes" Hmmm.....pretty sure I mentioned that. The 3 holes. In fact if you go back to my last comment you will know an extremely easy way to test if the 3 holes are plugged. (Do they drain?) Super easy. Why are you missing these easy clues?

    Did you take your cables that are to long and make a big hoop near the motor? Lots of people do including me.

    idle has loud snorts. A LEAN SNEEZE IT WILL SNORT AND SHAKE THEN DIE. 1/4 TURNS COUNTERCLOCKWISE UNTIL IT STOPS. High idle is not at all smooth when i try to move. HIGH IDLE WILL FIX ITSELF IF PROBLEM 1 IS CORRECTED. it's very in and out of power(bogs is the term?). HAVE YOU TRIED ADJUSTING...

    Full throttle in reverse little throttle forward

    Well, got a lot on my plate, if you don't get it by 9 pm PST then maybe. Hint though, it has to do with the box or the cables that come out of the box. Think hard on that.

    I could tell you the answer, but Racerone is correct. Your mistake is SO common that you need to learn about your motor. Best of luck.

    You'll have to wait for some of these old crusty guys to get out of bed to answer this one but I'm pretty sure there's an OMC commercial guide for that motor.

    Someone knows fersure. Sneezing and idle screw does little

    Hit the wrong reply and have no idea how I did it. Smart phones suck sometimes. "Low speed needle" touche. But a needle is an adjustable jet. Period. In my opinion, those motors can run on 100 to one with Amzoil or tcw 3 oil of any kind. i use Evinrude, mercury or Yamaha twc 3 oil at 75 to...

    Linc and sinc is how you set up the carb before you even start it. LOTS of info on that. Getting it done correctly is the thing and then you tune in the low speed jet. So "yes" he's correct 1/4 to 1/2 inches past the two marks keeps mine from falling off.

    You don't have much but your on the right track. Here's the answers because I'm tired. Linc and sinc....look that up. That's the two words that matter. Service bulletin. That does not fix a cough or sneeze, just a hesitation or the motor quits when you start out. Then it's carb tuning...

    Why would an outboard Mechanic?

    I hear you. As to the heli-coil, you're not sure you even need it. So in regards to that, let me tell you what you're up against. First you want to get anything away from you you can't be in the way at least as far as outboard parts wise. Then you need to use some penetrating oil and everybody...
