    40 hp mariner sputtering in midrange

    I have a 40 hp Mariner outboard it runs good at idle speed and at full throttle. For some reason when I get between 25% to 75% throttle it has moments where it has a little sputter occasionally. Any ideas of what can cause this abnormal behavior? Thanks for any info.
