Re: problem with 75hp suzuki
Hi,<br />I assume You use a Suzuki "NA12S" remote control unit.<br />The Ignition switch - It has dual functions:<br />1) Ignition switch (start)= turn it clockwise.<br />2) Choke switch = press in the switch (for a short time at the same time you turn the switch).<br />Then the engine get a quick choke and should start easier when the engine is cold/not been used for a while.<br /><br />Also make sure You have squeezed the gasbulb on the fuel line (from gas tank to engine) so it is firm and therefore gas has reached the engine/carburators (hopefully).<br /><br />Check so the tank went is opened so the tank get air.<br /><br />Use fresh gas.<br /><br />Don't forget to use fresh oil in the oiltank inside the cowling (for automatic mixing of oil in the gas). There is biological degraded 2-stroke oil like Castrol Biolube 100 if you prefer that).<br /><br />Try above and come back if it does not work.<br /><br />Also, unless it is changed recently, it can be wise to change to new gearcase oil (You drain and fill in lower hole, in lower unit, and "went" with went screw so the old oil gets out - if you fill in new oil fill until it comes out of the upper went hole, usually about 0,5 liter oil).<br /><br />New sparkplugs with correct gap can also be a good thing, if it was long time ago it was changed.<br /><br />And last, watch out for old impeller (water pump wheel) since it is made of rubber and will not last forever. If work/broke or some blade comes loose it can overheat your engine.<br /><br />/Bo
