"I've got a 96 Johnson 130
"I've got a 96 Johnson 130 (J130TLEDM) that starts fine and runs fine. Acheives 5600 rpm at WOT. The problem is when I punch it from idle to WOT it will stall out. It will start right back up and if I smoothly go to WOT it will do fine and get on plane quickly. Checked spark yesterday with a spark tester and spark is fine. Compression is 135-140 in all cylinders. I rebuilt the carbs with new kits last fall. I did not pull the throttle bodies off and clean them and my suspicion is that is where the problem may be. Before I go pulling off the carbs, is there any other area I need to check? Thanks in advance."
