Location: Kronenwetter, WI | Filled my tank with a fresh tank of premium-ethonal-free gas right before a trip. Lots of squalls moved through over the course of the next three days. At 1/4 tank my 200 Evie H.O. FICHT began hard starting and rough running. Seems like a fuel issue so I topped back off with prem eth free and added two cans of gas treatment (Jonson/Evinrude brand not available) hoping that would clear things up. Didn't help, still hard starting, rough running in idle and slow speeds....on plane runs fine. Now have 1/4 tank again.
Should I run it nearly dry then add prem-eth-free and the prescribed amount of John/Evie fuel trtment?
Not sure where the fuel filter is even located, but I wonder if there is some gunk in there. |
