"Same problem comes round and round...
Have you got an OMC factory manual?
Nick is right, timing setting is how to adjust idle...no screws.

"thanks guys! no, I don't have a manuel yet. I've been reading all the posts on therm,verns,compression,plug spark,and timing trying to learn more. I'm preety familiar with my motor(I've had it for 10 years), but I know I have alot more to learn. I guess that's why we have forums,huh? I haven't changed my fuel lines yet, should I? We have such crappy fuel down here. I've always used red sta-bil regularly. I run my bass boat year round,no more than 2 or 3 weeks parked. Recently I put the new blue sta-bil for ethanol in it. Thats when my motor started to screw up. What's your opinion?"
