    Johnson 150 fast strike problems

    I have a 92 Johnson j150glenc g3104791 fast strike,I have done the link and sync using the easy timer, I have replaced the bowls and Gaskets, power pack, coils, plugs and wires, and the motor starts up awesome and runs fine in the test tank, but when I put it on the lake it will not run past idol, it bogs down and dies every time you try to accelerate, please advise I'm out of ideas

    I just posted on here with almost the same problem but mines on a 99 Johnson 225. Don’t know much about your motor or if it has a primer solenoid but mine also bogs down and dies when I try to accelerate unless I activate the primer solenoid as I am starting to accelerate than mine will takeoff. I know it’s not a fix but it’s something to try might get your closer to the problem

    Have you adjusted the idle mixture screws? I believe they are 6 turns out from full in.
