I just bought a Lund Rebel with a 40 HP EFI on it. Maiden voyage made it 1 mile from the launch and it started to sputter and then creep down to an idle and then die. Got towed in and got it home, all 3 plugs were fouled. Installed 3 new NGK plugs and it still will not start. Pull off fuel filter and the starboard side and it is full of gas and water. I blew out the filter, unhooked the gas tank, installed a new one with fresh gas and kept pumping the bulb until clear gas ran out and reinstalled filter and primed it again.
Still will not start or even attempt to catch.
The warning buzzer comes on and I hear the ful pump cycle. I hit the schrader valve on the fuel separator on the port side and some more water came out. Still will not start but builds good pressure on the valve every time I check it.
Now I am stumped. Am I missing something that is still gunked up or fouled? PS, this motor has a whopping 4.5 hours on it but was not stored properly, obviously. It is under warranty but they will not do anything about neglect, I highly doubt anyways.
