[QUOTE="JL8Jeff, post: 410047, member: 12995"] Sounds like the fuel pump is going bad. I had 2 of them go bad on my 99 Johnson 40hp and had to rebuild it with one of the kits. The ethanol eats up the diaphragm. Double check all you fuel line connections to make sure air isn't getting in. If an O ring goes bad it can let air get sucked in which will cause it to act like that as well. [/QUOTE]
