I pump up the fuel line until it stops and the engine cranks fine. It seems to run until the gas in the bowls is used up and then tries to die. If I push the chokes in for about a half second (no longer) it runs good again for about 10 seconds. I can even throw it in gear and get a throttle. It acts like it is running out of gas unless I push the choke every 10 seconds or so. All the gas lines look good. I suspect the fuel pump.
I also don't completely understand the plastic cover over the carb intakes. It has a gasket that looks like somebody was trying to add permatex to seal. What is the purpose of the cover and also the gasket?
I really would appreciate some help with this. I bought this boat as a junker and gradually it is coming to life. WHEN IT IS RUNNING IT SOUNDS PRETTY GOOD.
