I have a 2000 200 hp johnson ocean pro on a 24 hydra-sport cc. The proble that im haveing is that at idle it has what i think is a miss. When it does this "miss" the rpms drop causing it to stall sometimes. When i put it in gear at lower speeds like for trolling it runs fine for a while but then is misses or coughs and the rpms drop causing the motor to stall or act like it will. If it doesn't stall then it runs for a few more until it sputters again then it will cut off. The motor will run its butt off at higher speeds and everytime it cuts off it will start right back up.<br />this problem is a pain because i am wirelineing a bridge and am real close to pileings most of the time i am fishing.Any reply of thoughts of advice will be much appreciated.
P.S. OMC manual says too Lean the engine will sneeze and backfire, too rich will be rough and unsteady
