Ok Fleetwin, heres what I have. The roller is tight to the cam at idle position and the butterfly is being held just slightly open. Not much, but a little bit. This is with the choke completely open. This is also with the roller about 1/2" to the idle side of the two marks on the cam. Up top the brass clamp on the rod is about 3/4 of an inch away from the nylon block on the linkage it slides through on the throttle arm. If I disconnect the rod from The butterfly to the roller the butterfly closes completely with out any binding. With the choke closed the butterfly is open quite a bit more.
This is not a tiller motor. It came off a pontoon with controls. The electric choke is not on the motor, just the manual pull choke. Something was messed up in the key switch every time I pushed it in to engage the electric choke it would pop the 20 amp fuse.
