[QUOTE="wmk0002, post: 501730, member: 13975"] I goofed on my post above and had it in my mind that this was a mercury and that drove my comments on the filter. I cant recall what the 35hp Johnsons had in that regard. Sorry. Are you advancing the throttle in neutral to a fast idle when starting? If not and it pops off and dies it's just firing off on the solenoid priming it and then not pulling in any fuel on its own through the carb. I'd make sure you are at fast idle and then once it fires off it should stay running and pick up to about 3,000 rpms where you can let it run for a few seconds before backing it off back to idle to see if it will stay running.
