  • 1984 15 hp problems

    I bought this engine at an auction and have had a number of problems with it. Most often it only gets used about one week each year at our fly in fishing cabin in Canada. Biggest problem now is that it loses its prime or should I say fuel pressure and dies all the time, really very bad at idle or fast idle. Not so often at higher speeds. I need to be abel to hold the boat (16" Lund) in reverse into the wind and can't keep in running and have to squeeze the fuel line bulb all the time . I have switched fuel tanks and lines with my other 1975 15hp and still have the problem. any ideas ? thanks, Jim

    Sounds like you may have a defective fuel pump.
