I have noticed on my 1970 Johnson 9.5 HP motor that there is a knob that adjusts for low and high speed(lean/rich)settings. What is the purpose of this
knob? Never seen anything like this on an outboard!

It is a lean rich adjustment for your slow speed. High speed is fixed. Look at the top of this forum for Top Secret Stuff and learn more. Rick.
