Hey guys got a 1983 200hp black max.
For ages it’s been starting trouble free and starts first or second crank. Recently did a service and rebuilt the fuel diaphragm and sometimes it starts fine. Sometimes it take a while but starts and runs but getting it restarted normally doesn’t happen. Can get it started to make sure it runs at home. Take it out for an hour or so and come home to flush and it won’t restart.. it just cranks and cranks and cranks.
Today I got it started at home ran for 10 minutes shut it down left it a minute tried to fire it back up and been unsuccessful even with start ya bastard.
The inline fuel filter does seem to drain back into the tank very quickly/doesn’t hold prime
