the problem is as follows,<br />1. put throttle in warm up (full throttle).<br />2. choke until it farts through carbs.<br />3. release choke motor starts right up.<br />4. pull throttle back to put'er in gear, she <br />dies, see step one.<br />5. repeat until you are lucky enough to get<br />her moving then she runs fine until you slow down again at which time she idles about 20-30 seconds and dies. (see step 1 )<br /> I posted this problem about a month ago and <br />got some good answers from page62 and sony2001. I rebuilt the carbs and fuel pump per their suggestions and also changed all of the fuel lines and the squeeze ball. It runs great in the driveway, but that gets boring and the fishing sucks! I have noticed that sometimes the squeeze ball gets hard and sometimes it don't. when I rebuilt the carbs I noticed that the casting numbers were differen't and that the color of the castings wasn't the same. When I opened them the jet in the bottom carb was a .094 and the top was a .1015. Did someone switch a carb? if so , which is the right jet? I need help as we had had to get towed in this weekend due to a dead battery from trying to get it started, and now the wife wan'ts it fixed or gone. <br /> PLEASE HELP,<br /> R.J.Byrnes
