[QUOTE="Johny25, post: 285121, member: 7791"] Lets make sure we are talking about the same thing here.... #37 in this diagram correct. https://www.marineengine.com/parts/johnson-evinrude-parts.php?year=1968&hp=6&model=6802A&manufacturer=Evinrude§ion=Carburetor+And+Starter+Group If it is to easy to turn then the packing needs to be replaced. It is supposed to turn both ways also and go more than 360 degrees. It has a very long set of threads on it and can probably turn 20 plus times from the start. Turn it all the way in until it bottoms out, lightly though. Then back out 1.5 turns and continue to follow the steps posted above. If the packing is shot (the plastic/rubber piece the idle screw threads into) then you are likely sucking air through it and it needs to be replaced. Also take it out and check to see that the tip is not worn out or beveled. [/QUOTE]
