i have a evinrude 135 and i haven't ran it for a year and a half , now i can't seem to get <br />it started. All spark plug wire firing, so i'm getting fire , i pump the gas , but won't start. it<br />only turns by the starter.. my guess is, its not getting gas. What is it? :mad:

You are probably right, Blocker.<br /><br />Try squirting some fuel mix into the carbs when you are trying to start.<br /><br />If she tries to go, maybe runs for a few seconds, either your fuel pump has failed or both carburetors are gummed up, or both. <br /><br />I would start by overhauling the carbs and the fuel pump.<br /><br />Let us know what you find.<br /><br />Good luck :)
