1995 Evinrude 115,<br /><br />Always have to fast throttle to get it started. Any recrank in the water has the same problem. When I'm flushing the engine it always cranks right up. <br /><br />Any suggestions,<br /><br />thanks

Re: Tough start

Evin - Sounds normal. You should also notice a difference in idle rpm. The difference is due to backpressure when in the water. Not a cause for concern.

Thanks SoLittle,<br /><br />Is it normal on most outboards to have to give the throttle a little extra gas in neutral to start. I'm running a 1995 Evinrude 115.
