Hey all
New (to me) boat owner and just getting used to using a boat again.
First inboard I have owned and I have been having a bit of trouble with the engine.
So it starts and seems to run fine, however the 3 times we have been out, after about 30 mins or so it quits and is very hard to start. With full choke it will fire up but might stall if I bring it to an idle, but will if I put it in gear.
I have cleaned the intake of all the carbon. Replaced the paper fuel filter, cleaned the filter on the side of the carb. Replaced the wires and plugs. Also replaced the coil as it was causing issues before. Put new gas in and when I fired it up with the muffs on last night it fired up kinda rough but smoothed out. And seemed to idle ok (750), put it in gear and seemed to run ok.
So any idea what would cause it to quit after 30 or so, I don't want to speculate on anything at this point as its mostly new to me. I think I have covered the basics so any advice at all is appreciated!
Also I bought the Haynes repair manual for this boat however I have been waiting over a month and wondering if their going to be able to stock it at all. So if you know where I can get a either a repair manual for the boat or engine, that would be awesome!
Thanks again
