My outboard has always been very reliable, however suddenly it won't idle, and will often stall when brought up from low revs. This happened suddenly. Started and ran fine on my mooring, problems by the time I got to the pontoon. Ran it up in the garden last night and no better.
I cant see anything obvious, I've cleaned the plug, although I did see a tiny bit of white corrosion residue around a bit of the head gasket. Could this be head gasket failure? Blocked carb jets?
It starts fine and seems OK at full chat, it's just the idling is an issue. Any advice welcome.
Thanks!
