I hunt well into the upstate New York winters with my outboard.Rebuilt the carb last Dec. and used it till Jan. w/ no trouble.I ran all the fuel out & added stabilizer to the tank after the last use.Tried to start it in May w/ no luck,it cranks w/ the ocasional pop but won't turn over.Changed the plugs & tried new gas w/ no luck.I need a fishing fix!someone Please help.

Does it have spark on both cylinders?<br /><br />What happens if you squirt some fuel mix into the carb before starting?<br /><br />Good luck.
