Tank pickup may be clogged? Was the problem there before the rebuild,
Harvey?

When is the last time the carbs were professionally cleaned or rebuilt?
That
sound more like the problem with that engine.


Carbs were rebuilt last month.

Before the rebuild, it would die everytime I took it out (and I had to use a
trolling motor or paddles to get back to the dock). It was a combination of
gunked carburator needles, a bad gas tank with no venting and really misaligned
control cables. I think all that's left is changing out the prop.
