I've got a '79 merc 175HP that i've just rebuilt the carbs on and when i am on the water (under load) it wants to die most times at around half throttle unless i gun it. In speaking to some merc shops here locally the concensus seems to be that there may still be junk in one of the low or mid idle jets in one of the carbs.
outside of re-tearing the carbs apart, quickleen has been suggested as a way to possible "clear this up" but i am very new to this and wanted to get some feedback here before doing anything else.
thx in advance for any insight on this!
