Message: <blockquote data-quote="Tinny Fleet" data-source="post: 512034" data-attributes="member: 22140">Pappy;  The plot thickens.  Over the weekend I started up the 90 Evinrude on the muffs before heading out and let it warm up.  Cold, but did the 5 second trick with the primer and it flew to life.   Then drove 10 minutes down the road to the launch site and once in the water primed it and flicked the key only to have the motor not start.....easily.  It fires, but only for a second or two, then dies before i can get it in gear.   After about 20 or more tries I got it to fire and stay on, drove the boat 10-15 minutes to the fishing spot so it became good and warmed up.  From then on it started at the touch of the key, no worries, all the rest of the day. Soooo...   Any idea what might be the problem/solution?</blockquote>
