Hi everyone,
I just acquired a 1983 18ft Thompson with an early 80's 115hp Evinrude. It seems to run great, good fuel flow, starts with no problems, idles great, but when I put it in gear it will run for 3-5 minutes and it shuts down. It doesnt matter what the throttle is set at, fast or slow, it shuts down after about the same time. The weird thing is it starts back up with one crank.
I'm new to outboards, so I'm at a loss.
Any help would be great.
thanks
