My boat is back to it's old tricks again. Last year I was having a problem starting my 1989 Johnson GT 150. I replaced the primer solenoid and had a few good months. Well this year it's happening again, however it appears the primer solenoid is working BUT it takes about an hour for it to finally START. I know the proper starting procedure. I have gas, everything checks out, it JUST WILL NOT TURN OVER & START.
I just want to know...What is the Significance of it Taking an Hour to Start. All theories aside about gas, spark, leaks, etc... WHY after an Hour does it just start up and go for the rest of the day? It just starts randomly but always right at 58:00 of cranking...
BTW: I cranked it in the driveway no problem, in the lake, under load 1 Hour
