Engine dies fron a idle start

[ranger 360]

I have a 1989 GtJohnson 150 I have not had it out in about 6 months I took on the lake after adding fresh gas it starts fine and Idle fine but when I push the throttle down it dies If I choke it as I push the throttle .It catches up and run great at high speed but it will go from a slow idle speed unless I push the choke and kinda hold it until it takes hold....Any advice

Re: Engine dies fron a idle start

it seems that you have a fuel starvation problem,check your fuel lines and fuel pump.<br /> I think that you are in the wrong forum section, try posting in the Johnson repair section
