|
|
Father-in-law has a 1987 Johnson 9.9HP 2-stroke that keeps fowling the plugs. Runs great for about 5-miles and then starts to sputter from the carbon buildup. There is a dial on the front of the motor that I think may be for fine-tuning the air-fuel mix but I'm unsure how to go about adjusting it correctly without scrooging something up. Any suggestions?
Thanks......Bret |

Might be silly, but it sound like the choke is staying on, or running rich, or gas mixture.
