    Stuck float on carb that was recently rebuilt

    If you left Ethanol Fuel in the Carb it needs Cleaned Out at the least. The ethanol attracts the Water and turns it to Goo inside the carb. If my Outboard is going to set for than 2 Weeks I always run it out of Fuel prior to setting. Add StarTron or Stabil 360 to help alleviate this problem.
