I have a Johnson 115 engine on my bass boat. We took it out for the first time this past weekend after winter storage. The day prior to putting it on the water I hooked it up and let it run for about a half hour to 45 minutes. It ran great. I filled the tank and headed to the lake. Initially it started and idled fine but when I was out of the no wake area and throttled it up it bagan to sputter and eventually died and would not start again.....took it home and and added a fuel conditioner and on the hose it ran great. The next day I put it back in the water. It would throttle up but it wasn't getting the thrust it normally has. At 1500 - 2000 rpm's it would bearly move but it never cut off as it did the day before.
