I have a 84 johnson 60hp motor, it is running very badly.. at first it starts up and runs okay for a couple minutes (not as responsive and powerful as it normally would be.. but semi smooth).. after a few minutes it starts to run very badly.. stalling alot if you give it gas, strong smell of gas, runs very rough, any ideas what to look at first?<br /><br />New gas line from tank (with new primer), fresh gas in the tank, I am running 50:1, this correct for this motor? someone mentioned running 32:1.<br /><br />thanks for any input.<br /><br />ohh, the good news.. caught 9 large mouth this morning!
