Hi guy's
I have been having some truble with my 64 40hp.
She starts fine and idles good at low speed, but when i put the throttle up it run's fine for a minut or 2 and then seems to and does die.
I then have to wait a few min. for it to start again.
One thing i did notice is that there is a lot of oil gas resedue even after i have shut the motor of some times even 10 or 15 minutes after
Other than that she still runs good
Any help would be great,

Sounds like fuel starvation. Is the vent for the fuel tank clear?
