My 2003 Johnson 175 was running fine all day,then at wot it very suddenly shut down,It would restart But sputter and shut down soon after,repeated attempts to start-will stop starting all together,after sitting for 20 minutes it would start and run at an idle,it would even engage into gear,but only lasted a few minutes and then it would sputter and shut down.I replaced fuel filter/water separator and inline fuel filter,still shutting down.I put the fuel line(after the fuel filter/water separator and before the pump ball) into fresh gas and its still shutting down.I should add that pumping the ball wile running doesn't make a difference.I can see through the inline filter and there appears to be ample fuel wile running(more fuel when I pump the ball),I have good water flow and I don't believe its over heating.Has anyone had this happen? Am I missing a fuel filter somewhere?Is there a relay or thermal overload?Any help would really be appreciated,thanks Ron
