Here goes, had some of the same syptoms as a lot of people lately.. 98 200 Johnson venom on 98 201 pro.. Had idle and sync adjusted a few weeks ago.. last couple of times out idle is smooth, stomp on hot foot and nothing(motor bogs and dies) So notice that the primer bulb isn't getting hard when pumped. head out and buy new bulb, still doesn't get hard. Go and buy a different brand and same thing.. It is getting gas flowing through just not getting that hard feel to it.. looked around and see no anywhere.. What else should i look for?

Also if i rev the engine a bit and slap it in gear quick ican get it to catch and run. Once it gets up it runs smooth. any toughts?
