I have an 89 johnson 175. I replaced the powerpack, brand new gas and oil, and new plugs. When I start it, it will run, then shake and sputter, then shut off. Sometimes it will run good for a while, and shut off like you turned the key off. It will either poor water out the prop, or blue and white smoke out the prop. This happens when it's cold. I can't let it run long enough to let it warm up. Also, my starter spring sticks sometimes, and once it locked in and kept going when I let the key off and killed the power. I mainly want it to run first. It's been sitting since November in coastal NC, and who knows how long after that. Can an OMC guru help me out? Thanks.
