Hi, just purchased a boat with a 1989 rebuilt mercury 120 two stroke on it. The first two times i took the boat out it ran great. The third time, it started fine, we went about a mile off shore, and decided to go for a swim. When I went to go restart the motor it wouldn't start, and hasnt since. The motor will turn over, but it wont bite, not even cough or sputter. I tried sprayn fuel into the carbs, it still wont bite. I checked one of the spark leads and they are producing a spark. Does anyone have any ideas, cause i've run out. The only thing that i can think off is i did run out of gas on the second voyage(off to a very bad start) so mabey it sucked up deposits from the fuel tank, and something got clogged. Any input greatly appreaciated, thanks.
