A follow up to the suggestion to give carb idle screw a quarter turn in. The engine runs smooth and strong but again, as soon as I engage forward she stalls. No problem engaging reverse. When stalled in forward gear it still restarts immediately when I turn the starter key. Note that on my boat the ignition panel is in main cabin readily in reach next to steps.

This problem began when I had moved my boat to a neighbors dock under normal power two months ago, no problems. Our dock was replaced and when starting to move her back, I had no forward power. I then adjusted the "forward adjusting collar" one notch and was able to move my Morgan back home once I restarted her after backing from their dock, although she moved weakly.

Again the engine runs smooth and strong and idles perfectly, it is only engaging forward that it stalls. I would appreciate any suggestions.

P.S. I am originally logged in back in 2008 as gary gerber with numerous photos.
