I was pulling my hair out and you guys were great all your suggestions helped me .I haven't put the boat back in the water yet to try it but im sure i found the problem .after talking to someone at starcraft service dept. (real cocky guy) kept insisting the carbs were at fault so i thought were clean after pulling apart and going through them Icouldnt get the small jet out of the bowl so i soaked it and blew air in it ,not good enough i went back through and stuck a wire in the jets one jet was plugged solid the other ones were clear

Re: carbs on 3 cyl johnson

Sounds like you got it fixed then, Huh? They can get pretty clogged up sometimes if left sitting for awhile. That's why they recommend removing the jets and cleaning them. Then you can see if they are clean or not..Let us know how it goes after the water test....
