had this discussion before but

had this discussion before but never got to the bottom of the problem. my johnson 70 stall on acceleraton after being idle for a while. starts and runs fine but if you are stopped or ideling for a while when you accelerate it boggs and stalls the only way to get around the problem is to accelerate as fast as possible then reduce speed any suggestions ( the last conclusion was to increase idle but this dose not help and dont like having engine reving hard when idle) thanks in advance for any suggestions
