Start with compression.
How does it idle?

May have some trash in your low speed jets. Also check all the fuel lines and especially primer bulb for cracks in the rubber and loose fittings.

idle is good? prob better than previous although have never thought it was awsome. as for the fuel line and primer bulb, i purchased new one today and will try this weekend. thx for the reply by the way i do remember from older boat from the past that even though the bulb pumped tight it can b bad.
