This motor ran fine a couple years ago. I tried starting it and it would only run if I primed it, and stopped after a few seconds after the fuel was used up.
I put another carb from an Evinrude on it - exactly the same carb - and it runs fine. Starts readily and idles good.
Before trying the Evinrude carb I tried - 1) manually cleaning it, 2) soaked it 24 hours in carb cleaner, 3) took out the welch plug and cleaned those openings and put on a new plug, and the motor still doesn't run with the original carb on.
Does anyone have any ideas what else I can try? It's not a big deal, I'm just trying to get to the bottom of what the problem is with this carb.
Thanks!
