    1971 9.5HP Evinrude lean / rich knob

    I have a 1971 9.5 hp Evinrude and on the front it has a lean / rich knob that doesn't work? It seems to be seized up? Does this matter? The few time I have ran this motor it seems to run fine without adjusting that knob? What should I do?<br /><br />thx mrbell83
