Hi guys. I just picked up a boat last month with a force 120 L-drive. Hadn't run in a year and a half I was told. Had no spark, I fixed that issue now it's timed perfect and has awesome blue spark to all 4 cylinders. After the 3rd try she started right up in the driveway. Did that 3 times and started every time and idled nice. Took it to the lake the next day and couldn't start it to save my life. Finally discovered the top 2 cylinders aren't getting any fuel at all to them, spark plugs come out perfect clean and dry Everytime while the lower 2 cylinders seem to be getting the right amount of fuel. Took top carb off and cleaned every nook and cranny and can spray cleaner through any one of the ports and have it come blasting out the other end - didn't fix it. Swapped lower carb with the upper - didn't fix it. So I sprayed some fuel directly through the carb against the reeds, still none getting to the spark plugs. If I put my hand over the intake for the carb I can feel it sucking as it should be, and the reeds all seem to have a good seal and look in perfect shape. I've spent every free hour I've had for 3 weeks trying to figure this out and am completely stumped. Id be happy to try and suggestions anyone out the can give me. Thanks a ton
