Default JS 440 bogging while ridding

I have a 1984(?) Kawasaki jet ski 440 that I bought late last summer, which wasn't in working order. I just replaced the starter. Now it goes, but it bogs and eventually stales. Seems like it not sucking enough gas. Would it be the Carbs not properly adjusted? Or is the timing out? It runs, but bogs and doesn't want to plane on the water. Please help!!! Thx!

It could be the timing, but start with cleaning your fuel lines, carb, new plugs, get jet specs from someone, and if that doesn't work then rebuild the carb
