I have been a Moyer site follower for many years but new to this forum.
I sail a 1970 Morgan 33 which I have owned for thirty three years.
Three years ago I replaced the double walled 60" exhaust pipe with a Vetus system which includes a number of Moyer components, I have an article on the installation in the current issue of BoatUS DIY magazine. I should apologize for the flaking paint on the engine in the photos, I tried a different white paint and it didn't hold up.
The 30hp Atomic has been extremely reliable over the years however maybe someone can suggest a solution to a current problem. I was unable to test run the engine prior to launch this season. I find now that the engine will start up strong then shut down. If I wait a few minutes to try and start up the situation will repeat itself. I have installed new plugs, new water separator fuel filter and cleaned the sediment bowl. I intend to remove the main passage plug next to drain the carburator. Does this sound like water in the carb?
