"My mercury is running really

"My mercury is running really high, out of water i am idleing about 1900 rpm's i know i should be around 1000 to 1300 out of water. I checked the carbs all butterflys (think thats what there called) are shut when in idle but i am still idleing high? what can i also adjust? i mess with the throttle cable and i cant move it any more, any sugestions?"
 
It would help to know what yea

It would help to know what year the motor is. Most motors that setting is done thru a procedure called link & sync. It is important that you have a manual and do it in the exact steps given to have a properly running motor.
