Hi everyone. I've had the motor for a couple of years with no problems at all. Then last week, after good day sea it stopped and wouldn't restart. Towed it home and it started fine.
This week it now won't start again! After pumping the fuel bulb, petrol floods out of the overflow tube.
Someone then told me it could be a sticky carb float. So, today I stripped and cleaned the carb. It started first pull after the rebuild. I let it run dry then tried again. Nothing, except fuel flooding through again.
Any ideas anyone? I could put it in to a workshop but would prefer to fix it myself if possible.
Thanks for any help offered.
