Good morning and thank you for any assistance that you may offer.
I have a Tracker Bass Pro 17 with a 40hp Outboard Johnson motor. I have replaced the fuel line, fuel filter, sparkplugs, and solenoid. This boat hadn't been run for over a year before I got it but supposedly it was doing the same thing back then. They said they had gotten it fix but didn't know what the mechanic had done.
I have also replaced the fuel and oil with new fuel and oil.
Any suggestions or things to look at would be greatly appreciated. Dying to go fishing but not that crazy about having to paddle up the creek.![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
Edit: I have tried starting it and while it is running then I give it some power in neutral and it will pick up on power and then shut off.
