@x35g2000hsb.googlegroups.com:
I had the injectors cleaned last fall and the engine was running
smoothly until this happened.
A '92 Mariner has injectors, not carbs??
Does it have a PRIMER BULB?
Primer bulb on the fuel line? Yes I have one. Now that I think about
it, it has oil injector but probably carburetor...
Dirty carb or carb needing rebuilding. Dirty plugs. Fouled sensor
somewhere.

The carb got cleaned last Fall. Was rough a bit but since it was
cleaned and up until yesterday, it ran smooth. I'll check the plugs
next weekend.

A local shop told me to check if there is water in the gas tank. Since
it's an inboard tank, it's not easy to check so I'll use a external
5gal tank (and clean fuel) and see if it runs fine.

Stuck reeds? Jumped timing (sheared flywheel key, maybe?)
