I just got a 2000 60 merc for my boat. The motor had been sitting up for a while so i went ahead and pulled the carbs and throughly cleaned them. The motor runs great except after it idles for a long period of time. It bogs down when i give it some throttle and the bulb has to be pumped to get it going and then it runs perfect til the next time you idle for a while. I'm thinkin maybe it's the fuel pump but what do i know.

It needs a fuel pump kit probably a OEM with ck valves--Bob
