  • Help please - 4HP 2 stroke stops when warm

    Sorry,

    probably daft questions but here goes

    I've an old (mid 80s) Evinrude 4.

    It starts and runs well, but after 20 minutes or so simply stops and refuses to restart.

    If I leave it until the following day, it starts again and runs for 20 mins...

    It had been laid up for 3 or 4 years before I got it, and my guess is that it's fuel or carbs, but I've stripped the carbs and run it with new fuel and new plugs - from the colour the mixture seems OK.

    Any thoughts greatly appreciated!

    I will post the Serial No the next time I'm near the engine...

    Many thanks,

    Mike.

    When the unit will not start, check for spark and compression.
