We just spent a lot of money on rebuilding the carburetors and rebuilding the fuel pump, new starter and another lower unit new impeller in water pump, and today a new ignition switch all because it was sucking air when we would throttle up to go it would act like it had water in the gas, but after an expensive lesson we learned it was sucking air at the end of the bulb gas line going into the engine. So I hope this will save someone else some money before you go and start rebuilding everything on the engine
Now all that... I have to use the choke device on top of the motor because the it wont turn over with the key when we try to start it but when it is running it great but when it is time to shut it off turn the key off and the motor keeps running, when we turn the key to the on position it kind of jumps up a notch in power like it is only shutting down one pack or side ..
Can someone tell me what to do or what it could be I thought it was the ignition switch. the way I have to shut it off is the same way we have to use that orange lever (choke ) to start it we just turn it the 30 degrees to the left then it will shut down or flood itself out.
