If it'll only run with the choke engaged...the carb must be cleaned. The slow speed circuit is dirty...clean it up.. I'm sure it'll run with a carb kit properly installed.

Agreed. The float may be suspect too. A carb. kit will have a new float.

The OEM kit MAY have a new float. The sierra one does not.

New here but just to let you know the last boat i helped out my buddy on kept doing the same thing. Every time we would clean the carb after a short time it would start this problem. Finally found the manual pump in the fuel line was coming apart on the inside and the screen in the fuel pump on the motor was busted letting these little pieces into the carb. Probably no help to you but just one thing I have seen.
