1971 7.5 Johnson

Every once and a while it will stall. Normally when trolling but sometimes when going full speed. Gas pump ball on tank goes limp. No problem restarting when pump ball a couple of times. I tried similar tank and it did same thing. Makes me think it is the motor. Would appreciate any direction.

Could be a faulty fuel pump, alse check for any air leaks from the tank to the fuel pump. Make sure all connections are tight.
