Today, I was trolling for salmon. For about 2 hours all is good. Then my 2006 15 hp Honda engine number BALJ1200339( with no prior history of problems) just shut down.Checked to see if out of fuel -no, tried to restart , but will not do so. Fuel is about 1 mo old in an auxiliary tank .
It is an electric start so went into cabin and while in neutral tried again to restart, no good. Left it in neutral and lifted the lever that allows me to run up the speed while in neutral . Started immediately and will continue running as long as I run it above 1500 rpm. run it down and motor kills, cant start or run engine. Changed to main tank but if I keep gas feed in neutral above 1500 rpm continues to run but not at lower speed.
Does it sound like something got into carb or does carb have a different problem?
