    I just bought some alcohol... Jack Daniels won't fix it I think, LOL, I will be at the lake this weekend, I will pull more out of the bottom of the tank.

    Yup, I Agree, I did change the Power Pack Last Year, so maybe the Stator? The Biggest Problem is finding Time to actually Play with this problem and Use the Boat More. I thought for sure I had water in the fuel tank, I just did not see any when I drain 3 gallons out of it. A bunch of people I...

    Thanks racerone, if the carburetors are clean of debris then, maybe I will have to go in that direction. That might lead to a hard decision. Thank You Sir, Scott

    Jimmbo, Last year I added a water fuel seperator in case. I had water in the fuel tank or "bad" gas. When I replaced the fuel line this year I bypassed that and the fuel filter near the pump so right now I am running directly from tank fitting to fuel pump in. Carb bowl drain would be next. I am...
