Re: stripped spark plug 25 hp evinrude
hey guys, i actually got it fixed a few weeks ago thanks to all of your comments, i put the helicoils in myself, and havnt had a problem, the only thing that is bugging me now, is that it is idleing to high, the carb. has been rebuilt and i set the idle "needle" all the way in- the backed off one and a quarter turn from there, the motor still chokes out. i ended up having to set the needle out about two and a half turns to keep it from choking out on me, but its idleing too high by doing so!! could this be a timing issue with the flywheel, or something else, maybe an idle jet in the carb. clogged? im not very good with trouble shooting timing issues or messing with the magneto and things of that nature. the motor also hesitates slightly when i "gun" the throttle handle. but when i get up to speed and on plane,....its an absolute dream, she purrs like a kitten. and it was doing this before i ever messed with the heli coil issue, the compression is good, 120 psi on both cyl. for 45 min. with no pressure lost. any suggestions??
