75 HP Idle Adjustment

[dejanzen]

I'm looking for information on how to adjust the idle on my 2003 75HP outboard. Currently it's running a little fast and I'd like to slow it down a little. Any help (like a diagram) is appreciated.

Hi Dejanzen,
There is one screw which adjusts the idle speed on all four carbs, which is very obvious in its positioning. If you are needing to ask, I would advise taking it to someone who has a set of vacuum gauges, and set them up correctly. They do not go out of adjustment easily, so if they are wrongly set then get them done correctly. There is a big difference in smothness and operation of the motor when they are synchronised well.
Cheers
John

Great thanks! I was wondering if there was a single adjustment but if not I'll get someone who knows what there are doing to set it.
