Once again this 1977 Johnson 115. Finally rebuilt the lower unit. Now the gears are fine but it acts like it needs fuel. When you give it gas it justs boggs and dies. I you put it in gear it will put around but any type of acceleration it will bog and die. I can get it to go if I manually play with the choke. The ball gets somewhat soft after it ideals for a few. I also noticed I could pump on the ball as it was running and it will start to idel a little smoother. I have cleaned and rebuilt the carbs but I have a filling it is the fuel pump. I pulled it and just cleaned it. Every thing looked fine but don t know what to look for to tell if it is bad. Compression 120 on all.
