[QUOTE="Piomarine, post: 408369, member: 16014"] I took the boat out the other day and was having issues with the motor idling really low and running really rough, but would significantly smooth out at WOT though even at WOT would still run at low RPM. Later in the day however, I was forced to kill the motor with the throttle rather than throttling down and pulling the choke (the choke knob had rattled out of its threads which are weak to begin with). When I started it afterwards...it ran fine. Any ideas what could be going on? Also with the choke knob, should I try and replace the choke link to get better threads or should I just put a dab of red on the screw and hope for the best? [/QUOTE]
