1981 evinrude 35 hp. The motor had a small skip/jook to it as it was running WOT. It would work fine when some one pressed the bulb as this happened. So i cleaned the carbs and put it back on. It still did it. New bulb, lines, changed 3 tanks, still does it. Now not only that, it will flood out at a low idle speed (no wake) and will not crank up. I'm going to fix the electric choke on it tonight, and maybe adjust the low idler screw. It runs fine on the hose. Like always.
It left me in the florida flats on a 100 degree day for a few hours. Stick steering boat so its not fun crawling to the back. Finally I got it to crank by burning the plugs and sitting them out for a while, and turning it over with them out a couple times.
Any ideas on what might be flodding it out?
