"Hello,
I just purchased a Johnson 9.5 motor recently(model# 9R-69s). I had been told that it's a good running motor, but it's been sitting for several months. I've been pulling on it and can get it to backfire every now and then. I don't have a book and have never owned an outboard before. My question is, if the carb is gummed up how far do I tear the carb down to clean it. I'm hoping this is my problem. Also, The previous owner got rid of the points and put in electronic ignition, of which I also know nothing about.
One other thing is the nob is missing on the slow speed adjuster. I don't know what this does anyway.
Thanks"
