Sorry, another newbie on site. I have a (according to serial #) 1995 Gamefisher 9.9 that I can't get to run. It will barely start and instantly die. What should the air mixture be? If you hit the primer bulb to much, it will spit gas out of a tiny hole on the side or the carb. Could my float adjustment be off? Possibly sucking to much air, seems like those little spring clamps (which I personally hate) don't hold much where the fuel line connects to the fuel pump. I used one of those test lights that plug in between the spark plug and wire and both cylinders were getting fire. This motor has very little hours on it. I know this is a long post but bare with me with a little history. I bought a 12' semi-v Gamefisher boat with a Gamefisher 9.9 from Sears in 1989. A year later gave it to my Dad for his birthday (ran great while I had it) and he used it a couple of times before telling me he couldn't get it to run. I'm guessing he took it to Sears and they ended up giving him a new motor because serial # says its a 1995. He used it a few more times saying it was overheating and replaced the impellar before it went back to the no starting. I got it back from him in 2003, got it running for about 45 minutes on the lake before it died and wouldn't start. I haven't messed with it since until now. Any idea's or help would be greatly appreciated.
