Hello All,
I am new to this forum an also new to the boating world..
I work on cars all the time just new with this outboard motor stuff, Heres the problem I am having..
I have a Johnson 1979 6HP outboard that I cant get to start.. When I picked motor up couple days ago I heard it run So I know it should run..
I have check for fire and it has plenty of fire, I remove the float bowl screw on the carb & it seems to have plenty of fuel but it will not start, I have pulled the cord 50 times already and does not even attempt to start.. I mixed the oil with gas at a 50:1 ratio as told, is this correct? I have drain and refilled the carb bowl 5 times already thinking maybe it was flooded but that does not seem to do it.. Any help would be appreciated..
Thank you all..
