My boat has not been used for about 5 yrs and I cleaned the carb and put in new spark plugs and then when I started it it runs rough and sputters. What did I miss??

Did you use new gas? Replace the fuel line and install a new primer bulb? New fuel pump? All these need to be replaced after sitting so long.. What year is it??
