Mercury 4.0 Problems

Hi all,
The other day after entering the cove in which i keep my Catalina 22. I fired up the motor. I had a full tank of fuel, and after about 2 minutes under power the motor cut off. The problem persisted several times with the running time decreasing each time i fired up again. I sprayed some carb cleaner in the carburator and on the spark plug to clean. However, after doing this the motor would not even start. I have purchased a new spark plug and have not installed it yet. Do you think this will solve the problem, or should I look elsewhere.
