well most of the ignition items are new. new switch. new ignition switch box. and the plugs are new. how ever, yesterday i pulled the carbs off and noticed the bowl vents where gummed up and plugged badly on all 3 carbs, so i cleaned them and today ill reinstall them and fire it up with the hose on it, now about the hose i have it hooked up , and noticed it just drips out of the bottom plate underneath, is that normal? or should it flow out of the jet?

IT RUNS IN THE WATER!! i took the carbs off and checked them out, but looked brand new so i pulled the bowls off and they floats where good, pulled the bowl vent hoses off and bingo.. all 3 of ports where gummed up, so i cleaned them up so they would be able to vent and out everything back together and it fired up and took it out for a test drive, was a little sketchy with the storm we had blowing in, but i didnt care haha
