    Bleeding Oil Injection Yamaha 60tlrc

    I have had this motor (1986 Johnson 6hp) for a few years. I purchased from a guy who bought it twenty years earlier but he never used it. It looked brand new. My problem is I was driving my boat and I went to slow down to grab my catfish jug and it just died and I couldn't get it to start. I...
