    1970 evinrude 25 hp runs in gear but won't idle

    25 hp 1970 evinrude will just sputter and cough when i try to start it. It will limp along if i spray a little gas directly into the carb. Put it in forward and it will start up and run.

    rpms on 64 evinrude 9.5

    I am using a 64 evinrude sportwin 9.5 hp on a little jon boat. The motor plate says 9.5 hp at 4500 rpm. I don't think I am even close to 4500 rpm at full throtle. Is there anyway to measure rpm?
