" Joe,
I did most everythin
" Joe,
I did most everything you suggested to do to my little 70' model 9.5 Johnson and then took it out to the lake last weekend. Man, that thing purrrred for the most part and the only problem I had was every once in awhile, it would shut off at very low speed, like when I would twist the throttle handle as low as it would go. Sometimes the motor would just go into a low idle when I would do this. It kind of makes me think I lose fuel at very low idle, but only some of the time. Any idea why?
Next, would you try and explain to me what to do, if anything, with the small knob on the left front of the motor. It has a "R" on one side and an "L" on the other. I suspect they stand for "Rich" and "Lean" as it relates to fuel mixture, but I am not turning that thing until I know what to do with it since the little motor seems to run so good most of the time.
Anyway Joe, I really appreciate your time and expertise, and the fact that you share them both so freely in this forum. Thank you. "
