"Anyone know the correct plug
"Anyone know the correct plug gap for a 1991 Mercury 25 HP? The engine is a short shaft, tiller, rope start.
We recently put a bunch of new parts on this engine after sitting for a few years. It runs good but it will not idle properly until warm.
We cleaned the carb. real good. It had a saturated float. Put in a new float and now it runs like a top. Just need to get the idle figured out. Seems the plugs are wet every time we pull them. What is the correct procedure for adjusting the idle mixture screw? I am familiar with OMC but not so much on Mercury's."
