Hi All, I just purchased an ol fixer upper. Its an 87 Starcraft with a 3.0 Mercuiser, 140hp, with an Alpha 1 drive. After sending it for service (this thing was in bad shape and not well looked after) I was pleasently surprised with the results. The boat idles great, started like a charm, 150lbs in all cyliders, oil looks like it was just changed after 8 hrs of running and every guage works!. My problem is lately that after I take it our for an hour or so, (Temp around 130 running) and load it on the trailer, take it home and go to flush the motor, it wont start? I'm on my second starter now, and I'm drawing a blank as to what it might be. The first time this happened I took out and cleaned the plugs and the cylinders appeared a little gassy, put the plugs back in and it ran like a top, and started with a little hesitation but it did go. I took it to the river and it ran great for approx 1.5 hrs, loaded it up and same thing happened when I got home. For the record rpm @ WOT is 4800, and I generally cruise at 3800-4300. Sorry for rambling but any sugestions would be apreciated.
