Learn something new everyday. Mine definitely looks like a throttle body. Haven’t pulled the breather off of it yet to look. Can you use starting fluid for gas engines on these engines ?
What is MPI ? Never heard that term before. I am an old school mechanic. My 70 mustang does the same thing if it sits for a long time without starting it up. It takes awhile to get the fuel back up to the carb.
I just bought my first boat about a month ago so I’m green on everything. I bought a 2005 Caravelle 187 with the 4.3 mercruiser engine. I have already noticed that when the boat sets for a few days it takes forever for it to start. Once it starts it runs great, idles at 900rpm. You can go out...
