2002 30hp johnson 2-stroke

[hogfish305]

Hey, hopefully someone can help.. My 2002 30hp johnson wants to bog out about 5 seconds after I plane off. It acts like it has juice then it wants to bog, when I slow down and give it gas again it will sometimes work for a couple seconds. I took the hood off to inspect the carb, and everytime it starts bogging, the carbs would only shoot a mist then turn off, shoot a mist then turn off. So it's for sure not getting fuel. I changed the fuel pump, changed fuel line, and cleaned the carbs.Any idea??? Thanks Tj

A couple of quick checks, compression and spark. Maybe you have an ign component breaking down, and loosing spark on one cylinder.
Try squirting fuel mixture in the carbs and see if it picks up, if so, you still have a carb problem.

Squeeze the primer ball when the motor bogs. If the motor picks up, you have a fuel delivery issue. If it doesn't you can prolly move on to ignition testing.
