Thanks fellas, I have emptied my entire fuel tank -replaced all fuel lines and new primer bulb- filled with new gas and added Star Brite fuel additive - I believe that I have eliminated any issues with fuel. I wanted to clean my tank to eliminate all issues starting with the easiest things ie fuel- new plugs, fuel water separator filter. The motor (Johnson 60 97') ran great the first night 0 issues than the shaking/bogging issue showed up again nothing that was too bad and it did seem to go away if I stopped put it in neutral and revved it up for bit - would run good at WOT - but all I have done doesn't seem to totally have resolved the problem - I will try the decarboninizing the engine next to see if that does the trick I don't believe that its ever been done, but I've only had the boat for 2yrs - could an air leak be causing this it's an intermittent issue

Thanks again
