I've got a Nissan NS90-A, but I assume this is a 'genera' problem.<br /><br />When I first start my boat, it wants to die. I have to re-start it a few times before it will idle. <br /><br />Once I try to put it into gear, I have to give it a good bit of gas or else it will die. <br /><br />Once I am moving, and I get out of the no-wake zone and open it up...it seems like it is running at half throttle for a while...then all of the sudden you can feel it 'wake up', and it takes off...<br /><br />What could be causing this? I know for a fact that all 3 cylinders are reading 115psi for compression, when warmed up. I am not sure of what they are when cold (I was told to measure when the engine is warm).<br /><br />I have only run the boat 10-15times, and have never let gas sit in it for more then 4weeks. I always pull the fuel line just as I get into the no wake zone, and run the fuel out once it's on the trailer.<br /><br />The motor is a 1995, and I just bought it 6months ago, so I am not sure of the previous maintenance.<br /><br />It runs like a champ when it is warm. Starts on the first crank and gets full power whenever you romp on it. <br /><br />The only other problem that I have with it is that if I let it idle for an extended period of time (30minutes), or do a lot of low speed cruising (when I'm catching bait w/the cast net), it will some times hesitate once I finally try to get on it, and it smokes a little more then usual. I assume this is due to excessive oil from idling too long? Any ideas?<br /><br />I assume it needs the carbs cleaned, which will be done this winter, and maybe even needs them synched. <br /><br />Let me know if you have any ideas.<br /><br />Thanks!<br />Shawn
