it sounds to me like it is not getting enough air. Run some
carb cleaner while it is running and then try readjusting
the carbs

I have a 1962 Johnson 75 on my '63 Thompson. It runs rough
and I am working
on that, but what I have discovered is that if the carb
access panel remains
open, it will run, but if I close the panel, it will slowly
die. The engine
has a large air open air vent on the bottom of the power
head so there
should be enough air getting into the carbs, but evidently
not, Any
suggestions would be welcome.
