Haugy - I was hoping someone would say exactly what you said and what I'm seeing on this thread because that's what I think it is too. Mine is acting just like yours. It's def not electrical in my case, gotta be the fuel. If I give it a couple shots, she starts. OUI mentioned the timing issue. I know we advanced mine soon after I purchased the boat, but I don't recall where we set it. What are some of you guys setting your timing at?
