    1996 Johnson 8 hp has stumped!!!

    This one has me fooled! 1996 8hp Model JREDS. It will not idle. I've run Sea Foam, rebuilt carb, rebuilt fuel pump, changed plugs, checked comp. t-105 b-105. Runs great at 1/4 throttle and above but loads up, smokes alot and finally quits at low rpm and idle. Any help would be appreciated !!!
