    It does start very easily and idles well. When I put it in gear it dies after about 30 seconds unless I up the throttle. Before I put it on the boat and adjusted the high speed it didn’t do this. If I richin the high speed it will run in gear. I was so taken back by the low compression that maybe I just need to go thru the carb again and don’t worry about the compression?
