I have been plagued with problems getting my boat engine to start lately. I was able to use my non-existent mechanical skills to determine it was a fuel problem; not enough gas was getting to the engine. I could pump the primer bulb and she would start and run for a few seconds, then stop. So, I replaced the fuel filter and blew out the fuel line with a little low-pressure air. Then, she started and ran normally.
Okay, it's obvious I am not a mechanic, or even a weekend warrior in that area. So when I can solve a problem by myself, just me and my manual, it's a reason for celebration around here! besides, I just don't have the funds for a good mechanic (or a bad one, either).
The important thing is that the boat starts and runs great now! Bring on the fish!!!
