Hello everyone. This is my first post. Been surfing the site for a few months and it is a great help. I have a new to me Honda BF15A 4stroke. 2006 I believe. I picked it up a few months ago, it had been sitting for a couple years. It started up and I replaced the impeller prop to get the water cooling working great. Motor started up just fine and ran good. Took it out and it ran just fine.
I ran the motor out of gas and it sat for a couple weeks. Now when I go to start it it turns over and runs for a few seconds and stalls. I can't get it to stay running. I had the motor in my garage over those two weeks and it stayed mostly warm. I did leave the fuel line and tank outside and it did snow one night.
What should I try? I am open to giving it a try but I know nothing about these engines so I am looking for some advice on this one. It ran so good and now it won't stay running.
