The motor is used primarily for trolling and I do use a trolling plate. Just this week after about 3 hours of trolling I got back to the dock and let it sit for about an hour and tried to start it up. Motor started a little rough but seem to idle ok. When I put it into gear it would stall out and then I could not get it to start back up. When I took the old plugs out they were not very snug. I replace the plugs and then I also replaced the fuel filter, which was very dirty. Motor started up fine but again when I put it in gear she would stall. I tried it again and she started and when I put it in gear she ran fine. The motor ran well for the rest of the day. Next time out ran well but after sitting after using it ,it would start but again when putting it into gear she would stall. Thanks for your help
