My 1989 Johnson 150HP idles good but when I give it gas it stalls and wont come up on plane.<br />I put it in neutral, put up the warm-up lever for a minute, then it will run good the rest of the day. Sometimes it will barely come up on plane then all of the sudden will take off with full power.<br /><br />Sqeezing primer bulb does not help.<br />I have rebuilt the carbs, had two different power packs, replaced the timer base and stator.<br />These were replaced for a different problem but <br />the stalling continued thru it all.<br /> It did run great for the first eight years that I have had it.<br /><br />Model J150STLCEM <br />Any suggestions?
