Problem: The motor idles fine when cold and I am able to cruise the lake without issue until warm. The motor always runs great once out of idle. At high speed it runs beautifully until I drop the rpm and come towards idle, it then dies slowly or just quits...
1979 Evinrude 55hp: I recently rebuilt my powerhead, rebuilt carbs, fuel lines... The problem before is that the motor would not idle and I thought that the cylinders were the problem with the idle. The motor now has great compression within 5% of eachother and excellent spark. It starts right...
My motor will not idle for longer than 30 seconds, sometimes it stalls out going very slow near idle speed. If I am lucky enough to get it into gear and moving without stalling out, it will run all day long at higher speeds.
I have rebuilt the carbs, replaced fuel line and bulb, new spark...
