" Gentlemen, I have a 1973 40 HP Johnson Outboard Electric Start Motor
After sitting for 3 years, When I took the boat out, the throttle will go up to 3/4 of the way while foward gear before the engine dies out, returning the throttle to the 3/4 position, it will continue to run fine, also idle fine
I've changed a defective fuel line, the brass connector on the tank and cleaned the fuel filter. "no change"
Could it be the tank?
Do you know the type and gap of the spark plugs?
I've put plugs in, but they are the factory gap.
Thank You...........Ralph "
