I've posted a couple threads here and all of them have been very helpful. Unfortunatly I still can't get my darn motor to run.<br /><br />I have a 1991 Evinrude 40 horse VRO that I can't keep running. I can keep it going with the choke but if I let off it the thing dies in about 5 seconds.<br /><br />I've cleaned out the carbs 3 times, I'd eat out of them at this point. I've tuned the carbs all the way to the point of the needle valve almost falling out but it still won't keep running. I've checked the fuel pump but it seems to be working just fine (it keeps the bowl full of fuel). My floats are set in the correct position (the bowl stays a little better than half full). I have run out of ideas as to what the problem could be.<br /><br />It will stay running at WOT but I don't like to leave it at WOT for too long if it's not in gear. Even at WOT it eventually stalls if the RPM's drop even a little.<br /><br />If anyone has any suggestions I would be so incredibly thankful. I've been working on this motor most every day since last tuesday and I desperatly want it to run by the weekend. Thanks again.
