I just got a Suzuki 85dt that has been sitting up for around 5 years. When i put it in the water and fire it up has somewhat of a rough idle at first "cold natured". But then it clears up an runs fine for a little while. When i go ahead an open it up it will plane on out and roll on. it then bogs down as if it wont take the gas or i'm easing off the gas. when i try an make it go at this point seems like its skipping misfiring. After a few minutes at idle it will run fine again. then the same thing. Any suggestions grreatly appreciated.

Time for a good carb clean ... also make sure you have enough ventilation at the tank!
