Hi Guys!! I've got a problem with my 2000 Johnson 225 HO (J225 HGLSSC). Thought I'd post on here and get some creative feedback.. I got on the water early, engine started reasonably easy considering its sat for 6 weeks, motored out ,up on plane ran about 67 mph hit first spot,fished for an hour, started fine, mashed on hot foot, engine bogged ,sputtered and died. Started easy again, bogged down and stalled again.. I tried hitting the choke, did not help, Feathered the throttle till rpms came up, got on plane, ran fine.. Hit next spot, fished,same symptoms again.. I do use Stabill and Yamalube additives, Engine does not smoke. I have checked Throttle roller, its on the money, Primer bulb is 3/8 with yellow fittings, changed in-line fuel filter, some settiment in filter. Going to change fuel lines to Ethanol grade lines,see if that helps.. Is there any other fixes or additives I could add to help solve this problem?
I also pulled all plugs,none are wet or oil soaked,all burning the same.
