I have a really strange issue with my Evinrude 115 hp Intruder motor. When I first get to the lake it runs fine at first. After I make 3 different runs to fishing areas and let the motor set idle while I fish; the next time I start the motor, it starts fine but dies when I put it in gear and try to throttle up. It seems to run fine in neutral; I can rev the motor and it sounds fine but dies when I put it in gear. This happens repeatedly until finally it seems to "catch" and I am able to gradually get up to speed. Any thoughts?
