Hi, newbie to outboards and a cheapskate at that (mayby an oxymoron--is it possible to be a cheapskate boat owner?). I have a '74 650 sn 4140471 that starts up and runs well for a while but then stops after a few minutes.

I was able to get home by putting the fuel tank onto the hull. Is the problem the fuel pump, the fuel lines, or the carb? Where is the fuel filter in this thing? I don't have a manual; should I rebuild the carbs?

Thanks, any help is appreciated.

That sound like a fuel pump or bad fuel connecter
