" New boat to us, frustrating
" New boat to us, frustrating problem. Started and ran well the first 6 times or so that we had it out with no problems. Then started, but wouldn't continue idling-dies. Changed the plugs. Ran in the driveway, but then the same problem again in the water. Brought it in to a marina, they said the fuel filter was gunked up-replaced it, and also made some carbuerator adjustments, but that everything else looked good. Good compression, etc. In the water it again started but wouldn't continue idling. After initial start, will only start again in high idle. Back home it runs well on the trailer, sounds better than ever. Checked filter agin, it is clear. Any suggestions? (In the meantime, we've heard that we didn't choose the best marina to take it to.....) "
