[QUOTE="dettmer13, post: 252532, member: 7802"] Hey everyone. I have a 1989 Johnson 25HP (Model J25RCEM) thats having a few issues. It was running rough (sneezing, oil on the plugs, not idling just dieing, and not running at full RPM) I put in a carb rebuild kit and now I've noticed the following issues: -Will not fire up when fuel line is attached, but only when I fill the float bowl and disconnect the fuel hose. -Prop still spins when in neutral (Just noticed this when I had the motor in the tank) -Idle is still off, and when I adjust the fuel mixture screw, nothing happens. Any help would be appreciated. I am new to boat motors but am not new to 2 stroke engines. It's getting pretty frustrating. Considering taking it to a outbaord mechanic but I need to save some serious $$$. [/QUOTE]
