I have a 1999 Johnson 175 that I just purchased used, I have run it probably about 10-15 times with no problems. I was coming in on my last outing and it wouldnt turn over. I pumped the ball and it started and ran fine until full throttle.

I went out the next day after checking the filter, which was fine and appeared to be recieving fuel when pumped to it, it started fine and I could run at 3/4 speed with no problems however when at full throttle the check engine light came on. When throttled back down to idle sounding stopped but the light stayed on. When restarted the light did not come on.

There are no apparent kinks/pinches in the hose from where I can easily observe. The filter is clean and seems to be recieving fuel. What are my next options? Is it OK to run the motor?

I will get you the model # but as I have read through this site it seems that another subscriber had a similar problem (Powerpack title) I will work on diagnosing it from there. If you have any other suggestions please let me know..
Thanks for any help.
