Test your recirc valves for idling issues make sure the clear sleeve is still on the throttle roller, may want to perform a sync n link.

I had the same issue with bogging on acceleration. We rebuilt carbs and noticed that 2 of the 6 carbs had a restriction in the low speed tube. It is the small diameter brass tube that goes down into the side of the bowl. Flush with alcohol and run some wire thru the tube and test by sucking through them until they are all free flowing. My engine is a 2000 johnson 225 looper as well.
