My rd 22 won't start, .. I think its a bad float, or fuel pump diaphram or something in the carb... Idk...
But I also don't know where to Start....
My starter motor kinda works if I wack it a bit, or kinda start it turning with the key turned to START but it doesn't get enough energy to turn engine, or even engage with flywheel...
Solenoid is good, battery is good, seems to b getting fuel, spark plugs seem good, ...
However the last owner said it was "bogging down". one day so he docked it, .. took it out the next day , and it picked up where they left off and continued to bog down further... So he took it ashore, fogged the engine and stored it for the winter (5-6 months) till I buy it... O and he was running 50:1 fuel mix for about a total of 25 or less hours of running time... (Entire time he owned it)
Would fuel coming to the surface of the water when I'm trying to pull start it indicate bad diaphram???
.. I know its a lot and scattered, and misspelled . But thanks for reading and any further, along with all previous help...
