"1991 Bayliner capri with 3.0 Mercruiser, problem is boat runs great full throttle and when you bring it back down to an idle it drops down to 600 rpm for 2 to3 minutes and then will idle out smooth around 900. Does this every time i run it and some times dies and have to restart.

Any ideas"

Problem fixed

Thanks for all the ideas !
