"We are traveling Central America and can not find a local dealer for service. 6 months ago the engine stopped and the carb was overflowing. I had a friend bring down a new one from the states, but after 10 minutes it started to do the same thing. I have had the new carb apart many times cleaned the jets and niddle valve. It starts and runs fine for a while and the floods and dies and won't restart."
 
"Take it into a Mercury dealer

"Take it into a Mercury dealer. It's the same engine under a different label. As to the actual problem, it might be a bad fuel pump diaphragm, but it's likely that you just keep using contaminated fuel. Are you using the built in fuel tank or are you using a seperate fuel tank and fuel line?"
