Post a few more deatils about your motor and a bunch of guys will chime in with great advice!
Year/Make/HP
IS this when you first start the motor after sitting or after it has warmed up?
Anything but FIRST sucks.....

The motor is a 1990 or 91 Evinrude 115hp. It'll do it every once in a while when u first crank it up, but sometimes it'll do out on the water when u shut if off for 30 mins or so..

It'll help if you'll put all the symptoms in one thread.

It sounds like a lack of fuel. Have you tried making sure your priming bulb is hard before you try to start it? I ran into that problem with my first boat.
When in doubt SET THE HOOK!
