I recently installed a late model Evinrude, which I got running last night. Problem is the prop is sometimes turning when I start it in neutral. When it's not turning I can put in gear, but then it continues to turn when I move it back to neutral. Is there some type of adjustment that I need to be making?

You need to adjust the neutral centering ... you will need a shop manual, unless someone else here knows your motor. Prop should NOT turn in neutral.
