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.

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
