Hi All,
I have a 1997 twin 110 787s , port engine last year ran fine after about 5-10 minutes of not revving past 3000 rpm. The motor would start fine and idle fine, but would bog and hover at 3000 max if I gave it throttle. After about 10 minutes, I could slowly get the revvs higher and higher and after a bit, both motors would be running tip top. This would only happen when cold. When I shut down the motors for a while, they would start right up and run no problem.
This year, the port motor wont idle, it sounds like its starving for gas. It has good spark, and when I drop some fuel into the air intake, the motor runs accordingly, then dies. I replaced the fuel diaphragm and the gaskets, thinking it wasn't getting fuel, now the motor will just sputter and pop a bit, but wont idle..
Any thoughts? I really dont want to pull the carb again, my back is killing me...
