Opened the cooling water intake seacocks, turned the batteries switch to

Both engines hardly turned over once and they lit off and purred. Little
or
no smoke to speak of. It was as if they were just running 5 minutes ago
and I shut them down for a minute.

They had not run since last September.

I start getting the itch hearing them run and the sound and vibration in
the
boat.

I have a Sears Roto-tiller like that. You can spit on the ground,
give the engine a funny look and it will crank right up after
6 months in hibernation.


The thing just wants to run.
