she runs great at low rpm in gear but as soon as i give it some throttle she wants to choke out and die. also notice excessive fuel comming from the carbs when starting sorta runs down the front of the carbs. so im assuming i need to rebuild the carbs so i got the service manual to acomplish this. my question is could it be something else causing this problem. have never had a problem with this motor very frustrating cuz the fish are biting.:mad:

Sounds like your floats are stuck. Take them apart and spray them out good. Run a piece of fine wire through them and spray them again. make sure when you put the floats back on that the part farthest from the hinge is just a hair above level with the carb body.
