[QUOTE="caver101, post: 215639, member: 1995"] I have a 2001 merc 4stroke 90hp. I am beginning to have idling issues, especially when trimmed up. I have the service manual and have cleaned the carburetor enrichener circuit and that has not helped. It all started when I ran some carb cleaner through it. It is idling low and dieing constantly. If I lower the motor back to the horizontal position it takes a second but it will start idling decent, but it takes a little while. The fellow I bought the boat from told me to pump the idle lever 4 times or it would not run worth a flip....and that has proven to be true. On other merc outboards I have been around if you push the key in when starting that is the choke. He told me not so on this model. Details? [/QUOTE]
