77' 35hp Johnson, Model 35EL77H. Was on the Mississippi wide open, headed to the fishing hole. Everything was fine. Backed off when I got to the "No Wake" zone and soon after she started knocking a bit. So now at low speed it ran funny but headed back at high speed it was fine. On the next outing things got worse. Engine was shaking back an forth, idle would be normal then high and back and forth. Shut it down and it wouldn't restart.
At home I got it going again but now it is at a very high idle all the time. Put in a carb kit and checked all the linkage. All good there. Still runs on a high idle. The low speed adjustment has to be open quite a bit to slow it down, flooding it, in which it still runs poorly.
The spark plugs are fouled and fuel is visible in one of the cylinders.
Any thoughts anyone? Thanks.
