My motor is an '83 Johnson 90hp that has been modified to a 115hp. The motor will start up but when I punch the throtle it dies. If i play with the choke it will stay running but it won't go anywhere. What should i do to fix it?

Check fuel lines, bulb, filters, tank vents. Has this boat been sitting for any length of time? Might be time to refresh your carbs....
