seems I got a varnish problem, because owner of boat, passed away right after he had engine pro rebuilt. they ran motor at shop he took it home, passed away next month boat sat for 4 years. My question is there hidden tricks or things I should look out for. Boat runs good most time. but last time out she wouldn't refire after shuting her down to fish she did restart after i jumped her and manully adjust throttle.Shop that tested her out told me i had varnish in carbs. but she may run okay. but i want to take her to bigger lake and don't want to get suck out to far

No tricks involved.Any outboard that has sat for 4 years needs at least the carbs rebuilt.Most likely water pump work as well.<br /><br />Clean fuel tank,LINES,and gas for sure.<br /><br />Good Luck,<br /><br />DHP
