I just purchased a boat with a 40hp Evinrude (model 40352D and serial E02386) on it. I had to take apart the carburetor to get the needle seat un stuck so that I could start it. I did not have a carburetor kit so I was not able to rebuild it. I put it all back together and was able to get it to start, but I can't get it to idle. I have purchased a manual for this motor and it does not tell me what to do to get it to idle. I plan on purchasing a rebuild kit for the carburetor and see if that will help. Does anyone have any other suggestions.
