Having some kind of fuel issue...
The engine starts and idles fine for about 3 minutes, then dies. Starts again no problem, idles for 2-3 minutes then dies unless the throttle is turned up.
I've tried this with the gas cap on and off, thinking the vent is blocked, no difference.
It'll drive forward for hours at idle, I just won't idle in neutral.
I don't have a working tach, but used a friend's timing light to get it idling around 900.
Also, there's a surge...
Also also, as the engine warms up the idle increases.
Also also also... The motor quits at idle, shifting from forward to neutral... ***.
This is our first year with the boat. It has a rebuilt carb and fuel water filter and clean fresh fuel. It also has an adjustable main jet. I've done all the Moyer tuning...
The annoyance is that it dies when in neutral usually as you're docking.
Any ideas?
