Why doesnt my engine start. my engine does not start unless i take off the spark plugs and put gas in through the wholes where the spark plugs go please help.
That would indicate you have a problem with the fuel system. It would be helpful if you tell us what engine you have. Does it keep running once you done the fuel in the whole(sp) thing?
its a 200hp mercury black max. and yea it stays running i turn it off half an hour later i come back and it cranks right on. but if i let it sit for a day it wont turn on the day after.
Does your primer bulb get hard after squeezing it a few times?
I would check your fuel line for kinks and for condition. Don't use one form K-Mart, buy a good hose either a Sierra Silver or an OEM hose.
Can you hear any clicking when you push the key in for choke?
Hold the key in for choke and advance the throttle warm up until it pops then you should be able to start without holding in the key.
