Any help you guys can give me would be great. I posted last night about issues I'm having. Also note, I drained 18 gallons of old fuel from the boat, put in 8 gallons of fresh fuel and added a full can of Sea Foam before I went out the other night and had the problems.

Really appreciate some feedback if you have the time. THANKS!
 
I,m cetainly no expert on outboards but i know small engines. I would at least dismantle carbs and clean all passages and blow with compressed air. some time jets need to be cleaned with the help of small diameter wire to get them clean. I soak mine in Gunk carb cleaner over night. A manual for your specific motor would be invaluable. Take pics if you are unsure how to put back together. Spraying carb cleaner will not help clean what is dirty inside carb. Running carb /injector cleaner in gas might help some carbs but taking it apart and cleaning and a new kit is best bet.
