| Hi,
My dad has been a mechanic for over 40 years! He has had nothing but problems with small engines and outboard motors that has had gas with ethonal in it. The first thing you need to do or have the seller do is put some high octane gas WITH NO ETHONAL INTO THE TANK. Next put some seafoam into the gas tank and check the spark plugs for any bad color, if bad color change them with NJK PLUGS. Run the motor and see what happens. Gas with ethonal is only good for 30 days, after that it will start to gum the needle and seats. If that doesn"t work take it in and get it serviced. There is allot more to cleaning a carb than a bottle of carb cleaner and a screw driver. DO NOT TRY TO TAKE THE CARBS APART BY YOURSELF! THE MECHANIC WILL NOT ENJOY TRYING TO REPAIR YOUR MESS. Good luck!
