Ok guys and gals i have a 1978 55 evinrude. When i lauch the boat i start and warm up for about five min when i select forward or reverse for that matter she stalls.
after about twenty cracks at it and lots of muttering ill get.going but i dont have full power for about 10 min or so then im away and it will not play up for.the rest of the day.
Now have tested the coils and power pack and are working fine, have emptied the.tank and used fresh fuel and changed filter still no difference and have made sure tank is vented.
now have checked advace is.working all good there so i am going to repace fuel pump and check that the fast idle needles are not gummed up as well.
Just wondering if i may be on the right track.
