Guys, guys. This was a nice congenial boater thread. No need to ruin it. Ryan is asking good questions and should receive good answers.

Now back to Evinrudes. I have heard that the reeds can deteriorate over time. But sometimes they can build up with carbon not allowing them to seal correctly. Regardless, I believe that the reed is on track with the troubleshooting.


Guys, guys...Donne' started the ****. No one else.


But, I should have had more sense than to respond to the dumb ****, so my bad!

Ryan, sorry about that. Keep us posted. This is interesting.
