Re: 1960-70 Johnson Seahorse 10
if you think gas might be old, dump it. fresh gas and oil mix, start and get away from dock, set high speed for fastest rpm -100 by ear is fine, then set low speed same way, but only slight rpm drop. tighten seal nuts before hand if needed. should be able to move reasonably easy. check fuel filter bowl before leaving. clean or change as needed. fuel floats on water if its present. good luck. if needed loosen all linkages and adjust adjustment screws alone, then tighten linkages midway. linkages refering to carbouration, nothing else.
