Throttle issues solved!

Over the years of owning my 16' double eagle with a 70 Johnson seahorse, I have had intermittent issues with idle and throttle up. It would sometimes bog, sometimes stall etc. Like I say, intermittent. Sometimes ran great, sometimes crap. Always got me home. Cleaned carbs, filters, checked fuel lines and linc and synced so many times. Today I was running through the fuel lines, again. I decided to check the vent line too. Line was clear, decided to take out the through hull cap. Plugged solid with corrosion. And a spider. Couldn't believe it.
Fired right up, idles like a champ!
Just thought I'd post it up in case anyone else is chasing gremlins like this too.
