The oil injection has been removed by previous owner. Do to cloging. I’ve been told this is common?!
We been using a 50:1 ratio mix. Which is working fine.
Ran the engine for about 45mins at medium throttle. Turned off the engine and power f0ore a float out in the lake for about 30mins. Engine started up fine cruising along at mid throttle again. When the start to slow down and sputter. When you gave more throttle no response. Engine then died. It started a few ties but when throttle was increased engine would die.
Wasn’t able to start again.

Thoughts??

Water in the fuel.?

Did you pump the primer bulb ??

 

[Cowvalley]

No water in fuel.
the bulb was fuel in it but not fully hard.

Compression test. Sounds like a overheat...that it was peeing water means nothing.

if that's good then open air gap spark test set to 7/16" with the appropriate tester.
