Post Subject: Honda 100 CDI 4 stroke, wont run on idle only medium and high rev

I have a problem with my Honda outboard, its the 100CDI 4 stroke, I think its 1979/80 none points model cos of the CDI,.. it is spluttering a little and wont run in idle or low rev,.. its quite smooth in mid or high revs but stalls before you can get it in gear,.. I have changed the plugs and cleaned all connections, I have replaced the seals in the carb and cleaned it with carb cleaning fluid, but the problem is still the same,.. can anyone advise me please? is the carb knackered or could it be something to do with the CDI unit? if this was faulty would it run at all? thanks, here is a pic of the engine just so you know what model, it doesnt show the carb side though... also where can I ge new carb and CDI if needed at a good price,.. thanks again Gordon
