Hey,
I was out fishing the other day and had a lot of problems with my motor. My first guess is that some water may have gotten into my gas as I left the tank outside and forgot to close the vent. It took a long time to start and then when it did it was was running really rough and whenever increased the throttle it would die right away. I didn't mess around with it too much after that and just used my troller to prevent any further damage if there was any. When I got home I checked the compression and I was 120/125 so I don't think I blew a ring. I am thinking I should just dump the gas clean the gas line and try new gas. Is there anything else you guys would suggest? Unfortunately I wont be able to do anything till tuesday so I just want to be fully prepared. Thanks in advance guys
