Bring it to a Yamaha certified mechanic bro. I had a similar problem with my 200 Johnson OceanRunner when I first got it and I fought with it for almost a year. Had a jackleg mechanic clean my carbs and didn't fix it. Brought it to a Evinrude mechanic and for $270, they properly cleaned and replaced gaskets and adjusted all the jets. Runs great now, no more dieing at idle or shifting from idle to forward or reverse like it always did.
Carbs have low idle/speed jets that need to be properly adjusted. Seems like that may be your problem. Does it die when shifting from idle to forward or reverse, or just at idle? Either way, could be the jets that need adjusting.

I think I am going to take it to gator sports in Mandeville (formerly st Tammany marine) and let them go through the motor to get a baseline.
Any idea on what kind of cost to expect? Anyone familiar with the company?
