Thank you for looking.
2001 VIP Bay Stealth 18.8’ with Mercury 150XL V6 carb. It had been stored for a year. It seems to run really good at partial and wide open throttle. My problem is rough idle cold and hot. Sometimes hard to start hot. It flooded on me today. I had to full throttle crank it to get it started. One time I could not get the primer bulb to get firm until I took it loose from the engine and then after a few pumps it pumped a steady stream. I put it back on and it started right up. When I got it the tank was on 1/4 so I filled it with super unleaded and put 32 oz. of Berimens in it just in case it had some condensation. I have checked the plugs. The thermal relief valve is working properly. I pumped some gas into glass jar and let it settle out, look good. I also replaced the fuel filter just in case it had not been replaced. Any help would be appreciated.
