Recieved old boat not stored properly and water got in the carb and sat in the intake valve channels.<br />What I did.<br />1.Siphened out standing water from carb and intake valve channels.<br />2.Dissasembled carb and cleaned<br />3.Cleaned valve channels with wd-40 and air compresser, look fine now<br />4.Cleaned intake valve manifold, replaced gasket<br />5.Tested old gas in 50 gallon tank(30 gallons left) still seemes ok.<br />6.Replaced plugs and gave attempt at a rough timing.<br />Problems now.<br />1.Not sure if carb is adjusted properly after reassembling and installing.<br />2.When engine cranks I occasionaly get a few pops coming through the carb and periodically seems like a cylinder or 2 is firing correctly.<br />3.Engine turns very slowly when pushing trottle to get a bit more gas(this is when most of the actual firing happens,nothing happens when you dont give it a bunch of gas with the throttle.<br />Issues/Questions<br />1.I would like to start with some creative troubleshooting before replacing engine or expensive carb(maybe the starter needs to be replaced?)<br />2.plugs look wet and oily from carbon after turning, indicating probable flooding in the compustion chambers?<br /><br />What suggestions do you have for me to get this puppy rolling again?<br /><br />THANKS,<br />Shawn
