Hey everyone, I'm just having troubles with my 1985 120 hp johnson. After winter storage it ran fine for a short period and now it does not want to run any faster than I high idle. I filled up with fresh gas, drained the float bowls 3 times, replaced the fuel filter and put in some carb cleaner in the tank. Any other ideas on what to look at next?

Thx

today I dumped a can of seafoam in and after a little while it's running just fine. Seems to me that the tank of gas with the stabilizer just needed to be run through it. The seafoam definitely helped.
