my 57 IS NOT GETTING GAS in the venturi it is filling the bowl but not getting any further. i put in new float,and blew out the orifuses i could see, does the fuel come up through the small tube in the center of the ventuei,because none is coming through there or any where else.plugs are dry.

Re: 57 evinrude no gas.

sounds like you need a complete carb rebuild. are you still using the pressure tank, that could be an issue as well.

if it's getting gas to the bowl nothing wrong with the pressure tank. I agree you need to take the carb apart and soak it overnight in a 50/50 solution of pinesol and water. then put a rebuild kit in.

Re: 57 evinrude no gas.

im still wondering if the center tube in the bowl is where the fuel is sucked upwards into the carb venturi, and if not,how?
