Bought a second hand boat with a 2001 Merc 4 stroke. It startes great, but as I advance the throttle is boggs down and cuts out. If I baby it by giving it gas, backing off, and back and forth, it'll rev up and go to full throttle. I've changed the gas, fuel filter and spark plugs. I also noticed the primer bulb never gets fully hard, so I'm going to change that next. Any other ideas? Carbs? I'm just not that familiar yet with 4 strokes.
