Have an 89 Bayliner Arriva with a 1990 120hp Force motor. Motor starts real easy. The 30gall built in gas tank seemed to have to much oil in the gas, I think the previous owner put to much oil in the tank, probably thought you just poured it in if you know what I mean.. The gas was probably old to. I drained pretty much all but probably 5 or 6 gallons and put 8 gallons of fresh 50/1 in. (didn't think it would be a problem). Got to the lake today, Motor started right up but sounded weak, you know that I'm gonna stall any time now idle, was idling very low). Everytime I would put it in gear it would stall, Everytime. I had added one of those water separator filters to the line. Luckily I brought a small gas tank with fresh gas in it, hooked it up, and the motor seemed to take on a new life, ran great. When I got home I put the 2 gas mixtures in cups to compare and the built in fuel tank sure was dark. probably a stupid idea to just add more gas and hope I get it right don't you think? Is the best thing to do is try to drain as much of the gas out that I can and start over?
thanks for listening
ps: (the fuel pickup is clean, looked at it when I got home)
