Well fishing season opens next Saturday and this past friday I decided it was time to open the boat and get all the fishing and downriggers back in the boat. My son and I opened it put the battery back hooked up the gas put the ears on got water to it turned the key on and it fired right up after about 10 seconds it started to run like s**t.real rough wouldn't idle. So we changed the plugs and it still runs terrible. Ok the gas is bad but I put in Stab-Stor in. So we mixed up a couple of fresh gallons.........fired it up again......same thing.#$&#$#&* Ok the fuel filter sucked up some crap and it's blocked......pull it a part and it's clean as whistle.....put it back toghter. Just as was going to leave to get my screwdriver that is now 2 streets over. I was looking at the carb. and noticed that when I winterized it I closed the ckoke to help keep it sealed up. I opened it one notch to on and it's runs like a champ..............Dumb
Hope ya found the screwdriver
