I know I'm sounding dumb here, but I've been building this boat engine entirely by myself. I have had an incredibly hard time finding a mechanic that'll help me. Two shops have already turned me down due to certain parts not being available new for this boat anymore( it's a 96), and they won't install used parts. Another two individual mechanics have flaked on me
...... with that said, I don't know what you mean by starting procedure. i just turn the key
... the air filter i have on it is an edlebrock air filter, is that not the same as a flame arrestor? It doesn't have the connections like that picture... I'm gonna post a picture of the engine
