i always make sure i have enough oil
From what I understand octane is not an issue but stay away from ethanol.
okay ..! awsome looks like. i know what im gonna do for the next few days xD
actually i notice the squeezer on the line was not as full as when i prime it ..... and i have the feeling i was running longer time when my buddie was pumping it on the wAy back .......the line is in good shape i havnt check the filter yet.....
Also clean the pickup in the tank. The outside of your fuel line can look perfect, it is the inside that fails and cones apart. Also the valve in your squeeze ball can become clogged with small bits of fuel line when they come apart as can the plug going into your motor. Your issue sounds fuel related so go thru the fuel delivery system thoroughly!!! If it is old then I would just replace it all to prevent future issues. If I remember correctly the life expectancy of the fuel line is something like 5-6 years...
thank you very much for the help ....im bringning the boat to my friends garage today i will chek all that
Do you have a built in tank or are you using portable tanks?
its a built in tank but i have access to it
Get the compression numbers to make sure the engine is ok and then start the fuel check offs if the compression numbers are still good.
Might try a portable tank if you know someone who has one.
Your outboard is a 1992 by the way.
No worries, just thought you might want to know. Model number J=Johnson, 70=hp, T=trim and tilt, L=Long shaft, EN=year.
