"Please help... i am puzzled!
"Please help... i am puzzled! I just bought a 77 starcraft w/ a 73 Chrysler 85hp outboard on it. The guy I got it from owned it for 1.5 yrs. and never used or put on water. who knows how long it sat before he got it.I ran out all old gas. have correct mixture in new. Just had the carbs rebuilt/cleaned.put it on river and ran right for 2mins. now I'm back to where I started. With the neutral knob pulled out runs great all through spectrum(w/muffs & on water).When gear is engaged w/muffs runs great. but on water(under load) boggs out bad both in neutral idle and at higher rpms. Runs good at 4 mph. boggs down and dies if throtled up more than that..could it just need a new full pump?techs around me can't figure it out(had it in shop 3xs now, same prob.) any theories or advice??"
