    johnson 115 has a bogging problem

    I have a 1999 115 J115PLEEM SN G04559600. I had it out for the 1st time last week. It started fine idled fine and i left the dock. Ran at low RPM to the mouth of the harbor and opened it up. It jumped up on plane and ran great for about 1-2 minutes then it died to 2400 RPM. After awhile it jumped again for about 5 minutes and died to 2400 again. When i got home I changed plugs, fuel filter(under carb cover and put in 20 gallons fresh gas. Yesterday, same results as before. Any suggestions?

    Next time out hit the key (choke) if it picks up you have a fuel issue if not you have an electrical issue.
