Johnson Colt Won't Start- Sometimes
When I tried to fire up this outboard for the first time this year, it
wouldn't start. The carburetor was disassembled and found to be clean. All the orifices were checked and were clean. There was no debris in the bowl at all. The choke was checked and the butterfly was clean and worked properly. The spark was checked. Compression seemed fine. A new plug was inserted. After reassembly the engine was cranked and started immediately. It ran perfectly, but was run only for a couple of minutes. After a few hours. it was started again. All fine. A couple of hours later, started again. All fine. The next morning, it was cranked and wouldn't start. It has'nt started since. This pattern was observed once before another year. What is happening???? (Help much appreciated!) Frank |
