I have this engine and haven't had any problems all summer. Got boat from friend who hasn't used it in years. Got it running good took it down the WI River here in Point and ran for about 2 weeks with no problems at all. Last Friday went to take the family out and it started up like normal, dropped the throttle to idle and it died out. 2 hours of trying later and it never started again. The next AM I took it back out and this time tried a little gas into the carbs and it started on that gas but died right back out. Tried again today and I'm getting same results. I took the fuel pump off tonight and cleaned it and have pressure going out of the fuel pump. Any advise I can get would be helpful, at a complete loss as it ran GREAT a week ago with no problems. I am not the most mechanically inclined guy in the world, have no idea how to rebuild a carb and there is no service manual for this engine anywhere near me other than buying one, so please use simple terms, thanks for any help you guys can offer.
