Default 1975 boat with a merc cruiser inboard

lo/mid speed jets are clogged w/crap. Hose out the carb and hand choke
to clear it. Someone else will explain how.

I have read some of the reviews about this in the past.

I just bought this searay boat. It runs fine and idles fine . when i
push the throthle forward when it is in gear the motor quits. When i
look at the carb the choke is fully open. If I hold the choke half
closed and have somebody else hits the throttle it is fine. I can
than let the choke go.

any thoughts
