Hey all-

I was on the water with my wife and parents and the motor wouldnt start. I went 2 miles, fished for an hour and half. Went to start up and give her a lil throttle to warm back up, and she petered out. Did it to me 3 times. Choke, no choke no throttle, mid throttle, more throttle ect. She is getting compression, newer plugs gapped correctly (within the past year.. 30 hours at most on them) with fresh gas (premium feul with Amsoil synthetic at 50:1). Shes done this before as air got in the gas line. I checked the fittings and they were good. Any ideas? The motor is a 1985 Mariner 9.9 tuned to a 15.

Thanks.

Re: 9.9 Mariner Issues

Update- All fittings have been cleaned and changed. The lines to and from the fuel filter (which is clean) and new. Any ideas? This is frustrating!
