It may be your run off wire is grounding somewhere.

Right above the big red control harness plug, theres a 20 amp inline fuse.
If fuse is ok...
Then disconnect red plug and try again.

yea that worked.. there was a little bit of green mold in there.. kinda weird how that happened when i messed with the carbs.. now im off to find out why there is no water pumping out of my teltale.. the water pump is fine and there is no restriction when i stuck a hose up were the water pump pumps the water.. i only ran the boat for about 20 seconds because i didnt want to mess anything up.. people say that it might take about 30 to 40 seconds...other thatn that look at my other recent posts and let me know if you can answer any of those ,,, thanks

The telltale hose could be plugged or the nozzle in the lower cowling could be plugged. Happens all the time.

way too many threads for one engine.
I know it has multiple problems , so you really ought to consider the factory manual and go through the engine, sounds like maintainance was lapsed a while ago.

I wouldn't wait for neglected service problems to crop up, do what it needs if its new to you and get it running right, it'll run great.
