Hey guys! Just picked up a 16 Evinrude Lightwin. Here are my dilemnas - couldnt get it started from the get go - cleaned out carb, had fuel (or so I thought) and motor started three times for me but died right away. Then realizes I was getting really low amounts of fuel from the tank to the carb, so we fixed the petcock assembly and now im getting great flow. Spark is perfect, fuel is good, still wont start. Any tricks? It HAS started a few times but died after a second or two...is there a primer I should know about? Also, I have two knobs for fuel (Rich or Lean) - - and where do those need to be when starting (if it matters)
Thanks guys! New to this boating thing, could really use some help!!!
