Help...I tried to start my boat motor so many times....

This is going to sound weird but loosen the gas cap and make sure you are getting air in the system.

Logical....except the current problem is electrical.

I think I just have a bad connection somewhere. Turning electrical things off and on can jiggle stuff around.

Thanks for the effort!

You know more than the entire EF brolyhood apparently.

Stupid question but does it have a kill switch?

Also, check the battery terminals and solenoid switch connection. That is the easy stuff.

Engines that sit up that long usually have bad carburetor problem with gunk building up inside of them after they sit for long periods of time.

You might want to invest in a new fuel pump and water pump if it has been out of the water that long.

Boats are money pits and I have had my share of them.

What's up dude?

Yea, I have run several batteries dead and then slap my head when I remember about that kill switch....

Not the kill switch. It is fuel injected.

I had it running for a few seconds several times.

 

[Testosterone boy]

Where is the solenoid switch?

One thing I have never dealt with.

 

[Testosterone boy]

I'd really like to get this problem resolved.

well, if you had it running wouldn't that eliminate electrical problems?
sounds like you're not getting fuel
