    2005 115 Johnson PLSOR dies at idle

    I did not mess with the adjustments, so I assume (or rather, hope) they are where they need to be. actuualy they are probably exactly at the proper place the problem is the fuel crud which blocks a very small passage hence the need to just open up the idle counter clock wise to check for...

    Weak spark from one spark plug
