" I bought this motor recently

" I bought this motor recently, when I got it would'nt run smoothly in the thrash can, like a lean sneeze I could'nt richen up. So I have rebuilt the carb & replaced the fuel pump. It will idle and run great in the can,lean or rich.But when I get out on the water, It seems like the carb is loading up at take off, when it finally takes off it seems to lean out so much it kicks every 3 or 4 seconds(only on the water. the can it runs fine.)what could it be?

Are you sure it is not jumpin

Are you sure it is not jumping out of gear? Also check spark to make sure it will jump a 3/8" gap. You may have a bad coi;.
