I have an 85 evinrude xp 150. Motor was completely rebuilt, but then sat for almost 8 years. Tanks were drained, removed and cleaned. All new fuel and oil lines. All new vacuum lines. The boat will idle fine and rev up in neutral. When you try to give it throttle in gear it just bogs down.

Go through the carbs. Never know what you'll find after 8 years.
