Hello i have an older Mercrusier 120 that i just purchased. The previous owner had the boat running but it wouldnt run under a load(at the lake). So i bought the boat redone some of the electrical work and rebuilt the carb(to what i thought was correct but may not be). I replaced all plugs,wires,points,capand button so now i have great fire. I had an issue with the carb "dripping" gas into the carb when the linkage was at its home position. I have an inline fuel shutoff valve so i get the valve back to 3/4 open and it seemed to fix that problem. The boat runs great with the muffs on it will idle great and tach up great goes into gear fine. I took it to the lake today and it ran great at idle pumped water great but wheni put it in gear it would split sputter and die. I belive im either starving for fuel or something else is wrong. I dont have alot of movement when i use the shifter and put it in gear its only moving the linkage at the carb about 1/2 inch or so. I think im just out of ideas to try so if someone could please help id greatly appriciate it.
