1989 70HP idle

[roger46982]

Fresh powerhead good compression. Ran great till yesterday while out on Erie. Started idling rough up to about 2500 RPM's then it runs great. To get it back to the ramp {idle zone} I had to keep hitting the primer in doing so it would idle up for a bit then again start to die. Sounded like it was running on one cyl. HELP

Check all fuel line connections, you may be sucking air and losing your prime.
