Have a 1989 3-cycle 70HP Evinrude outboard.<br /><br />Would someone be so kind and instruct me on setting the idling up on this motor?

Re: Idling

Do a search for carb adjustment. Joe Reeves has an excellent post on this.

Re: Idling

Also tell us what is is or isnt doing that youd like to change.<br /><br />Make sure the carbs are clean, you have fresh fuel (less than 30 days old), youre using Champion plugs and have done a decarb job. If the motor has been sitting for a while you might want to start with a carb cleaning.
