Have someone else start this thing up while you watch the engine with the cover off.Do you have fuel pouring out of those carbs?Doe's this happen only when you are in gear or across the board?Could we have a problem with the gearcase?Change the gear oil and tell me what you see. PLEASE JUST STAY ON THIS THREAD THIS TIME!!

It sounds like your suckin air, have you looked at your plugs? Are they black or white? <br />Not knowing your moter: distribution caps and plug wires can screw ya. Try starting it in the dark. If your brave you can spray starter fluid on the carbs and intake. You probably tried that. Check your wireing scamatic for bazar nuetral switches, fuel pumps again...stay on thread with hondon, my sea worthy ideas are runnin short. :cool:

So let me get this straight, while the engine is running,you have fuel pouring out the carbs?If so then we have a needle and seat issue and you will have to remove those carbs and go through them.While your at it take a fuel sample directly out of you tank by removeing the quick connect on the engine end of your fuel hose ,and pumping the primmer bulb into a fuel safe container.Sounds like you might have a big slug of water in your tank.After you read this, go to the bottom of your screen and push post reply.THAT will KEEP you on the same thread and might prevent me from overlooking your posts.
