    Air intake for a 1974 9.9hp Evinrude

    Try wiggling the wires around while it running and see if anything changes. Any chance there is some lose Insluation in the cover thats getting sucked into the carb throat?

    Air intake for a 1974 9.9hp Evinrude

    I was thinking the same thing. Make sure all your wiring is in order and no lose wires to short to ground when the cover is on. You could be losing a cylinder due to a short.

    68 Johnson 9.5

    68 Johnson 9.5

    If its parallel now then try moving down a hole. It looked like it was all the way down in the vid. Also these older motors were more about torque than high end rpm. You may just be out of luck.

    2002 Johnson 40hp stalls when fogging top cyclinder only

    Sadly I had to winterize the boat today and when doing so I found that when I fogged the top carb the engine stalled and when I did the bottom carb the rpm's increased. This has never happened to me in the past. In past years the rpm's would drop on both top and bottom but never stall in one and...
