Suzuki 140

[BVPBill]

Hi:
I have a 4 year old Suzuki 140. Has 150 hours on it. Put the boat in the water today, fired it up and it idled fine for about 15 minutes. Then it shuttered and shut down. Could not get it to run smoothly again. I changed the separator, didn't notice any water.
I suspect a fuel issue.
Never had one problem with this motor.
Anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks,
Bill

Re: Suzuki 140

If it is carbed drain the bowls and see if water is present. If the gas has set for sometime it may be bad ....just not enough pure gas to keep the motor running. Is this a lfuel injected motor?
