I have a 45hp 4 cylinder 2 carb Mariner that continually need the carbs taken out and cleaned. It is an older one with the oil tank and it mixes the oil and gas itself. I was told by who I bought it from that that oil system was unreliable so he suggested I mix the gas myself. I don't know if the cabs they are getting dirty or if the needles just get stuck. I have had 3 different guys for a total 5 times and it only lasts from 10 minutes to 2 hours. The last time was the longest and that was running the pontoon 3 times for a total of about 6 hours. I totally cleaned the gas tank with new gas and wiped out the inside. Both carbs have had kits put in. I changed the gas hose and all the fuel lines and filter in the motor. Are there any known problems with this motor. I met someone else at a resort that said he was having similar problems with his. Can anyone help?
Thanks,
