Dear all,
i recently cleaned , the very dirty carburator of my engine, with your instructions and with a carb cleaning spray. Yesterday, i put first time after this the boat in the sea. For the first half hour it was working fine, smoothly and it planed fine. I stoped for 5 minutes without turning off the engin. Then tried to speed up again and the engine died. When i opened the throttle the engine would immediately die. At idle it worked ok. After a couple of hours in the sea, i wanted to return back to land.I opened the cover of the engine I removed the air filter, put my hand and closed each one of the openings of the 3 carbs, and this way started to raise speed. Then , I opened the emergency chock switch. when i opened this chock the engine would make a lot of smoke and inrease speed , then i close it , run a little ok, then started to die again. I again opened the red switch and again speeded up. This way , up and down up and down, i managed to come back to land.
Any ideas where to look to find the problem? And in the beginning i was so happy to have fixed my engine at last. But still i face problems.
Thanks for any help provided
