1984 mercury 60 hp 3 cyl

1.5 turns out from lightly seated should get you started. Final adjustments will be made at the lake with the motor in gear and warm. You may want to get a manual.
 
Just high enough to keep her from stalling.

So you know, that is one of the hardest motors to get a proper idle adjustment on. I use an infrared heat gun (on the plug's metal base) to get all three plugs the same temperature (about 100 ' F). That seems to work the best. I then add about a 1/4 turn OUT on both adjustments to prevent bogging.

Good luck!
