Check this one out.... http://www.woodyboater.com/classic-boats/miss-detroit-iii-as-she-was-meant-to-be/

"Tell it to the Marines"...an expression of disbelief.

It's all brand new...and installed by Mercury trained tech.

I don't think so...If it were a float the problem would exist whether cold or hot. And would probably yeild other symptoms other than just hard starting. Choke is used upon cold engine startup and is a good place to start. I say check/add a primer bulb as it may actually be something else...

SOLD!!!!!!!!!!!!

Fingers crossed....

Thanks. I did the engine from the crank out this past winter. I added Vortec heads and went to 1:6 rollers and we did zero deck the block. It has an Edelbrock induction package performer carb and manifold. She dyno'd just under 240HP @ 5100 with a very mild (near stock) cam. BTW, yes she's...

Hope you are havin a blast! ...relaxin' that is.

Without seeing it.... I'd consider the choke system or priming bulb?

They sell a lot because they are one of the few "Trailer" specific tires readily available (by a major manufacturer). I've never had an issue with one...and I have a "worn to the belts" pair in my garage.

Friday 4PM...notice a puddle forming under the stern of my boat. A closer inspection uncovers a leak from one of the trim cylinder braided lines. I race down to the marine shop to arrive just before close...and they find me a replacement on a spare cylinder in the used parts van (big...
