I have seen Honda's act like that from varnish, will it run longer with the choke on? I would imagine you have tried that, unless it has some kind of automatic choke. It could also be an ignition problem, I had an older outboard than had similar symptoms and it was a condenser, but I imagine this one is electronic, but it still had a condenser. If it were mine I would put some Sea Foam in it and take the air filter off. Then start it and dribble enough fuel into the carb to keep it running.
