[QUOTE="Tinny Fleet, post: 432523, member: 22140"] This is a new motor to the board, not covered by any previous post. I have a 15 hp Johnson 1985 version. Will not start unless I dump gas in the carburetor. And then runs only long enough to burn the gas up. It will respond to adjustments in throttle. Checked the fuel pump: it seems to be working although somewhat weakly - still pumps gas. I have tried to seafoam the carb in place, by dumping seafoam into the carb to try to clean it out. no result. The linkage appears to be all intact and functioning. What is my next step? Replace fuel pump? Rebuild carb? Thanks in advance Whit [/QUOTE]
