1998 Force Mercury 90HP Stalls at Slow Speed

[Oldsaltydog]

Starts easily, idles fine, runs really well, except it sometimes stalls while running in gear at around 1100-1200 rpm, and the primer bulb usually goes soft. But it will start right up after the bulb is primed. Seems like a fuel starvation issue. Any suggestions? (Cleaned carbs, new fuel filter, new plugs, and rebuilt fuel pump.)

Seems strange that it only stalls at low speeds, and not at higher speeds.<br /><br />The fuel pump is working, as it is sucking the bulb flat.<br /><br />I would start by replacing the fuel line and bulb.<br />And checking the fuel tank and fuel pickup for debris/sediment.
