1967, 80hp Johnson outboard

[rz]

I haven't run my outboard for about 3 1/2 years, and when I did it would die after about 20-30 minutes of steady running.

I now have the time to get to it, what would be the recommendation before firing it up after so long.

I don't know much about outboards, but then again I have you folks. Thanks
