Hi i have a pair of identical Suzuki dt 3.5 outboards with an identical problem.They both start no problem and run for a few seconds then die.I have stripped and cleaned the carbs,checked the reeds, checked the ignition and checked the fuel to the carb which runs out when the fuel pipe is disconnected.It seems and sounds as if the bowl is running dry as the revs increase before it dies.As well as a gravity fed tank it has a fuel connector to run a remote fuel tank and a fuel pump.I have ruled out the fuel pump being the cause as when the fuel line is detatched from the carb fuel pours out.Has anyone else encountered this problem and a solution will be greatly appreciated.
Regards Steve
