"This is getting old. I have a 2007 Tohatsu 9.8 four stroke that will run at high RPM's, but will die at lower RPMs. It seems to run a bit rough at high RPM's, smokier that normal, but it runs. As soon as I lower the RPM's, it dies.
Carb problem, you say? Don't think so. I've taken it to a mechanic twice, opened it up and cleaned it out myself twice, including this past weekend. Looks fine; jets aren't clogged, nothing.
Fuel problem? Nope. Installed a water/fuel separator filter, always run the fuel out of the motor, never use old fuel, use 89 or 93 octane...
Just can't figure it out. Ideas?"
