I have a motor that if I throttle up slow the motor boggs. If I throttle up fast the motor stops. If I throttle up slow and it starts to bogg I have to pull the primer out and push it back in and then the motor takes off. This happens about 90% of the time. The motor will troll all day long. Is this a carburater or a fuel pump problem? HELP!!!

Thanks

The only way to clean a carb is to take it apart and do the job right, on this forum some seem to think decarb with seafoam will repair anything, I wonder if they drink the stuff? Bob
