I have a 2000 Johnson 90 with the optical ignition system. Its on a 25' Crest pontoon.. I have been having issues with it surging or cutting out so to speak... I have cleaned and checked the fuel filter... Tried pumping the bulb when it did this with no difference... It has done it low and high rpms... Also with 4 people on the boat the other day it was only turning 4200 rpms wide open... Anything else I can try to pinpoint maybe ignition

as far as i know the vent is open and clear.. carbs have not been done since new.. however it does not stutter all the time...like the other day it did it when we first went out but not again just would not run any higher than 4200 wide open

Carbs haven't been done in 9 yrs ?, what about the water pump?
