hi all,
I was decarbing two evinrude outboards today(both mid 80's model). I finished with the smaller, 15 hp first. Since the mixture tank still had plenty of fuel in it, I decided to use it on my 90 hp which has vro(auto. oil injection). Now the mixture tank has about 1 gal of gas with 14 oz. of seafoam and 2.6 oz of 2 stroke oil already, which means I would be running with twice the oil amount. well, It ran for about 30 seconds or so and died.
After realizing what I shouldn't have done, I switched the fuel hose back to the regular tank and tried to restart it. It would start and die within a few seconds. How can I remedy this? I hope I won't have to clean the carb. I am thinking flushing the fuel line with regular gas and draining the carb(need guidance on how to do this also).
thanks in advance.
