| Bill, way to get a fish in the boat and I am glad to hear it finally runs fine. What turned out to be the problem, the fuel pump as I suspected?  |

Location: syracuse indiana | yes , its was one of the 3 fuel pumps on the motor. she runs great now. dies while idling every once in a while but thats probly the new gas ontop of the older gas and the seafoam trying to get whats left thats we didnt get out of it. the tank was full of 2 year old gas and water. but other than that it runs great and quick and smooth and so quiet. i cant believe it. also i am gonna change the hose and primer bulb this week it looks kinda old. that might be the problem too. and i need to get me a cover for it also.. kevin did good this weekend too he got a verry healthy pike and him and bukes had a ton af follows and i did also....it was a good time...bill |
