I have a 1964 mercury 850-e outboard. When I start the motor up cold after bulb priming the carbs it takes maybe seven attemps to get the motor running. All three of my carbs have been rebuilt, cleaned, and idle adjusted. Now when I take the boat out on the water and cut the motor off it is hard to start back up and my battery is mostly drained by this point. Do you have any sugestions how I can resolve this problem?
