1988 Evinrude XP150 STALL ISSUES

[fattony]

Hi
New here...lookin for some help with my 88 xp150. It stalls as I throttle up from a start. If I bump the choke and hold it in while throttling up it jumps on plane but can be finikey. I have spray cleaned the carbs with power tune and noticed a great improvement in cold startups also replaced fuel lines, priming bulb, inline fuel filter. My VRO is dead so im mixing my own fuel. Is this a choke adjustment issue? Carb issue? Or something else? Tried the easy fixes without much luck

Any help would be much appreciated...

Thanks

sounds like carb issues. You should remove, clean, reinstall and adjust.
