Can someone please tell me how to tell if a flame arrestor needs to be replaced or not?
I frequently clean out my flame arrestor with carb cleaner, and notice that the carb cleaner does a pretty good job...
However, I recently had my carb rebuilt, plugs changed, and manifolds+risers all replaced... YET, I still have a hard time starting after I have run the boat a while... ARHHHH !!! Talk about getting aggrevated when troubleshooting !!!
I have now theorized that it may be the flame arrestor, cap&rotor, or fuel pump? (btw, I also changed the water-gas separator too)
The reason why I think it might be the flame arrestor, is because when I take it off, I notice that it is a little easier in starting... HOWEVER, if it were the flame arrestor, wouldn't that also affect the starting (when cold)?
Everytime I goto the marina, I have no problem starting when cold, it is only after I have run the engine a while, and while I am in the ocean...
PLEASE HELP !!!
