Hi,
I am writing in regards to the above outboard that was bought 2011, but was not used and sat in a garage until a year ago, 2023. It appears brand new, but there is no indication of hour usage. It seems likely that it has not been run-in to the required 10 hrs @25:1 oil ratio. It will not start.
Can you tell me what possible damage could have been done to the motor with it sitting so long and not being run-in to the manufacturer's requirements. And how to rectify, please?
Regards
Allan
