the engine on my boat turns on and after a couple of minutes backfires and turns off. when i crank it up again it turns on right away.can anyone tell me what the problem might be?
You need to make sure everything's "right". The things to check are the throttle setting/timing advance; the low speed jet setting; and make sure your plugs are Champion L77JC4 (or QL77JC4) gapped at .040. A compression check wouldn't be a bad idea either.<br /><br />Do you know the history of this motor?
