86' Evinrude 15hp 2-stroke has a forward, nuetral, reverse>>Everyone goes reverse?
Hey guys today I was out ont the delaware, I have a 15hp Evinrude 86', pullstart/short shaft. The river was shallow todya so i don't lock down the prop in case i hit some boulder. The prop came close to the surface on a couple of a counts and two time I had to pop it up before I was able to fully have it cut off. Although I didn't hit any rocks, not today any way. That being said. after i popped the prop up the secound time and drifted, from then on it didn't matter wehter u had it in forward, neutral or reverse it was all going in reverse. Oh yeah after about a half an hour of figureing out what i could do I notice some fuel comeing from under the choke and carb intake. This lead me to believe that it had something to do with the air and fuel intake. Note I changed the gas in the tank and flushed the fuel like whats my next step? Becase after i changed the gas and what not it was still all backwards. Thanks for the help.
