hey hows it going this is my first post here and hope you guys can help me.
i bought this boat about a month ago and has a 1973 johnson 65hp outboard.
i have took it to the lake like 4 and never hade a problem beside normal problems the came with an engine this old. well last weekend i was at the lake crusing and the engine stalled and wouldent turn over. i waited like an hour or so and it started i dorve i for like 15 minutes hoping to make it back to the docks and it stalled again and once agin couldent start it so i had a guy tow me back. i think it was over heating but not sure. there was no water flowing out of my engine like it should be. when it stalled i was trying to turn it over and it was acting like it had no spark and there was fuel rising from the prop to the surface of the water.so if it over heated would it act like it has no spark? thanks guys for the help
