Hi guys, I've got a 1994 200hp mariner that works perfectly fine apart from the following problem. Once the engine has been running for a while and its turned it off, it does't start again unless I use the throttle accelerator during ignition. Any hints as to what the problem might be? Any help would be much appreciated, thanks
 
Re: Mariner 200HP Starting problem

Are you pushing the key in when you start it hot. If you are you are choking and therefore flooding it this would explain why you struggle to start it hot. Just turn the key when starting, dont push it in.
 
thanks for the reply. i'm not pressing the key for choke, im merely turning it. i was thinking that perhaps it could be a faulty enricher valve?
 
Try pumping you fuel bulb up next time and see if that helps, some motors will heat soak on you and boil the gas from the carbs. just prime the fuel system up and try it.
