Looking to buy a 2002 smoker craft with a 20hp Suzuki. Motor was sitting for 2 years the owner said. When we tried to start it it would run with a shot of starting fluid but it won't stay running also the primer bulb won't get hard. Really like to know if this is a easy fix before I spend 2000.00$ on it. Really like boat and he has lots of extras. Please help

The carb(s) need rebuilt. But without the motor running, what other problems could the motor have? Plenty! Offer substantially less.
