The 70s Johnson or Evinrude outboards of similar sizes did not have any charging system. I had an old Johnson 50HP (key injection) mounted on an 18Ft Zodiac and I needed to remove and recharge the battery once every couple of weeks. Keep the battery dry and the contacts well greased.
It's possible that a little fuel vapour come out of a carb on an hot engine that has just stopped.
Does the motor starts again and runs well in higher rpm ranges? Is the stall only when idling? If so, enrich the idle fuel mix ( screw out the idle mix screws half a turn t a time )
