[QUOTE="mmarz4evr, post: 275636, member: 7211"] I have run a mixture of seafoam and gasoline to help decarb if there is an issue. changed and gapped plugs correctly. New gas; perfectly mixed with oil. Still cannot get this outboard to start in idle. It starts first pull when in gear with a very low throttle speed; but in idle i can't even get it to start. I've even tried to increase the idle adjustment speed; and no luck. The outboard runs fine in gear all day. What else could this be? I'm thinking i'll have to rebuild the carb and/or change the thermostat. Any thoughts? Do you think I should be OK for the season like this? I maybe take it out once a month maxium and is garage kept when not in use. [/QUOTE]
