I have a 1966 40 hp Johnson electromatic shift -Model RKL-28B with carb issues. It will start up with high rpm but after warmup it will not run using the automatic choke. I need to use the manual choke in order to slow down the idle. The automatic choke setting causes the engine to race.and the idle adjustment needle doesn’t seem to help. I have cleaned and rebuilt the carb twice but no luck. I can only get it to idle using the manual choke setting between full choke and automatic. What am I doing wrong. Any help or advice would be appreciated.
