Hello,
I'm a new guy and have a small problem. I have a Nissan 5hp motor. NS5B. It ran perfect last year. I did not drain the gas or anything else to store it this winter. Just kept it upright and out of the elements. I stuck it in a big barrel of water and it fired right up after 4 or 5 pulls. BUT, it will not idle. Just revs up with no studders or misses...just won't idle. What should I do or check? I am pretty handy, but know next to nil about boat motors. I have no manual. I need this thing in a month for camping trip. I know...I should have stored it properly!! Anyway, any and all advice would be appreciated.
Thank you!
