Howdy Fisher.<br /><br />Before we can be of any real help to you, you need to understand some basic technical terms and a little bit of how your engine works.<br /><br />I know you are impatient to get it fixed, but:<br /><br />Get a manual and read it. If you still have questions please come back ready to speak outboard terminology.<br /><br />Good luck.<br /><br />Red sky at night. . .<br />JB
