I am a total newb when it comes to carb engines and boat engines.
THe boat ran really nice a month ago before I had the floor replaced and did a bunch of work to the interior.
I splashed it today and tried to fire it up but it ran like crap.
It will only start with a lot of throttle and won't hold idle without a lot of throttle. If I put it in gear it won't get up to speed to move the boat at more than a quick idle. Its making a nasty popping sound I think might be back firing.
Any ideas where to look first?
