Have a 1991 40HP that stalls while idling. Runs great at higher rpm's. Just started doing this in spring. Ran great last fall. Any ideas?

Without any further details, the first thing I'd suggest is checking the adjustment on the carb(s) idle needle(s). Considering it just started in the spring after running well in the fall, I'm going to guess however that you have a gummed up idle jet.
