I've got an 1985 Evinrude 40hp that's acting very weird....it starts up fine and idles great. If I give it half throttle, it accelerates up a little...delays for a couple seconds...and then increases RPM's by itself almost up to what they would be a full throttle. When I back it off, the RPM's drop to where they should be, but then the engine slowly decreases RPM's by itself until the engine cuts out completely.
Does this sound like a jet problem in the carbs, or what else could this possibly be? It's almost like it can't decide if it's getting too much fuel or too little.
Thanks for any help!
