I have a 1975 6 hp evinrude it runs good but you have to hold a little pressure on handle for it to run at idle speed if you let go it rolls over to stop and shuts off. is there a way to adjust the handle to prevent this? Thank you for help

They used to have an idle stop screw on your type of mtr and I looked at the parts break down of your mtr and can't find one. Maybe somebody else will chime in.

it does idle,, it just the tiller turns by itself to stop position and cuts engine off what i was asking is if there was a way to adjust the tiller tension to keep it from turning by itself?
