hello,ive a 4hp ,2 stroke 1980 s (yamaha) mariner,from cold it starts well,but when hot or cold ,if it doesnt start on the first pull,it wont start unless i use the flooding procedure (turn off fuel,put throttle to full and pull untill it starts ),once started all is well .stripped the carb, no gunk inside and float seems good .if before starting (hot or cold )i pull the engine over several times with stop button in it will replicate this problem ,any ideas thanks
