" Motor is about 15 years old.
" Motor is about 15 years old. I purchased last year ran great. winterized last year. Two weeks ago i replaced plugs, drained and refilled lower unit, added 6 gallons of 50:1 ratio mixed high test. Took boat out it performed flawlessly for aprox 3 hours ran like a top. 7 days later took boat out agin didn't add any fuel, motor would not run at full speed when i left the dock i thought i flooded it when i started it, i ran motor at low speed aprox 5 min it cleared up ran great for a short time then acted like it was starved for fuel. checked water seperator filter it was full of fuel no water. filter screen on motor looks clear.i can not find other filters. The motor will run great for short distance then will act starved for fuel .It did this a number of times took boat out of water fearing i would be stranded. Ihave much auto and electric experiance but this my first boat. Any help ? "
