After starting my 1987ish 45hp 4 cylinder mercury in the yard and running at all throttle postions with no problems, i take the boat to the lake and when i put in water and go to pump primer bulb gas shoots out in a straight line from one of the little holes on the top carb. It was not doing this at home. What would make it do this? Is something stuck in carb jet? ANy help greatly appreciated! thanks
