Re: Ethanol!!!!!
What a pain this whole thing is. John, thankfully my gas tank was replaced in 96, so I should not have a problem with the vent lines etc. I also heard that was a problem from Nauset Marine.

Help it's Sputtering!!
Ok, first trip was great and my motor ran flawlessly. Second short trip it was sputtering a bit at slow speeds. It was almost like it would skip a bit with a slight lurch forward (ever so slight). ...

Re: Mercruiser mechanic on Cape Cod?
If you were on the mainland, I have a Fireman/Boat Mechanic that does my work. I may have to call him if I can't figure out my starter problem.

Re: Starter Problem I think!
I tried moving the throttle back and forth with no luck. I also tried my connections. I loosened and tightened but still not luck. I "think" I've exhausted the simple things, but one never knows.

It's a force 125. The motor looks great so I'm going see how long it lasts. There is no kill switch on this boat. I have had boats with them and had that problem with the first one I encountered. ...
