" I have a 73 Evinrude 9.5 sportwin.
A month or so I wrote in about a problem with having to run full lean on the slow idle adjustment screw at full throttle to achieve top speed. with advice from guys at this forum I found the motor mount to be broken allowing the motor to twist and pull on the choke linkage.Repairs of tearing apart the case, welding,replacing the mount and reassembly are outside of my ability and too expensive to have done by a professional in comparison of a new motor. The motor runs great otherwise and It seems like a waste to just throw it out.
My question is this:If I disconnect the Choke linkage other than for starting is there any other significant problems this would cause? And would this be a sufficiant fix for this problem. "
