94 Mariner 150 Starting issues... - 04/29/18 02:38 AM
My Mariner 150 will fire right up on the muffs and while unloading. Runs great wide open and will idle all day long, but as soon as I kill it, dang thing won't hardly crank.I usually have to choke or raise my fast idle lever all the way and eventually it will start, but when it does I get alot of smoke. Then it runs fine but like I said as soon as I kill it gives me trouble. It doesnt matter if I run it for 15 minutes or thirty. If I kill it, it's hard to start. As long I as keep it running I don't have any problems.Today I went to load up, docked the boat backed my truck down to the ramp took me 5-10mins to get it to start. Got it loaded on the trailer figured I would see what it would do so I hit the key and it fired right up out of the water. Of course I killed it as soon as it busted off. Any recommendations?? With all the smoke when it finally cranks it's almost like it's flooding out
