1987 40HP Johnson ELCUD
The motor has sat for about five years. I cleaned out the carbs, both jets in both carbs were blocked. I replaced the VRO pump with just a regular fuel pump. The motor ran fine. I took it out on the water a few times with no problems. The last couple times i took it out when let up on the throttle it just seems to die. The motor will idle fine, run at low speeds fine and full throttle fine. Just when i let up to slow it cuts off. I believe its a fuel problem but i have no idea what it could be. Any suggestions?
