I have written about my motor before and here we are again at the beginning of a new season. I have been out on my sailboat three times this spring and had to return under sail to my slip every time.
It takes a few tries for the motor to start and then it dies after 5 minutes and I have to wait may be an hour to start it again.
When the motor runs it does not sound right as if there is not enough fuel or there is gunk in the carburetor.
I am thinking that I need to replace the main fuel filter and the Moyer filter that I installed 2 years ago when I replaced the fuel pump. Do I need to check the carburetor?
I welcome your input.
