Evinrude carb swap

[alumacraft74]

Will a 1978 johnson 35hp carb fit a 1974 Evinrude 25hp?My carb(25hp) has a bad throttle shaft(lots of play).I've found a carb off of a 1978 johnson 35hp that is cheaper than ordering a throttle shaft for mine .If it works will I have to do anything special or just bolt up and go?Thanks for the information."MERRY CHRISTMAS" everyone. chad

Will it be too rich like fouling plugs at idle.I need it o idle for trolling purposes.Anything i can do too fix the rich condition such as jet change,etc.Thanks again Chad

gapping the plugs to about .035 or .040 will help with the constant trolling a bit.
