When the engine is cold (has been sitting overnight), it takes about 5-6 pulls to get it started when using the starting procedure from the manual. Once it is warm, it will start on the 1st pull.<br /><br />The engine is a 1993, which I purchased last year. Runs great otherwise. I have not done any work to the carb. I did run some seafoam through the engine, and replaced spark plugs with recommended Champion plugs. <br /><br />My lawnmower starts on the on the first pull every time. Why does this damn boat moter have to be so finicky?
