    1993 Johnson 200GT Carb Question

    I just finished performing a decarb on my J200STLETC this weekend. I removed the air box in order to spray down the throats of the carbs. When I squeezed the primer bulb, getting ready to warm up the engine, I noticed a small amount of fuel leaking at the very bottom of the carbs. This started just about the time that the fuel bulb was getting tight and I was not able to tell where the fuel was coming from. Does this sound like I need to rebuild my carbs?

    Run it and see how it does. Excessive priming can cause this.

    Re: 1993 Johnson 200GT Carb Question (ChampioNman)

    Thanks for the reply. I ran it yesterday and it ran like a champ. I thought that priming it too much might have caused the fuel to run out, but I wanted an expert opinion. I'm to cautious sometimes. I have had an issue with it wanting to die at idle. However, I performed a link and sync and it appears to have fixed it.
