[QUOTE="HOUSE, post: 288885, member: 4466"] Wow, you guys are awesome. I took the boat out for the 3rd time yesterday and this time I left the air valve on the gas tank open and it started up on the first pull almost every time! Awesome! We only caught 6 keeper crappie, but it wasn't bad for mid-November in Ohio. Thanks again for all of the tips. I still can't believe I missed that one :shock: I noticed one more odd thing yesterday. If for whatever reason we didn't get it started on the first pull, it would never start on the second or third pull unless it sat for a few minutes. It seemed like I was flooding the engine, but I wasn't priming it or squeezing the fuel bulb. I was just pulling the cord with the throttle in the 'start' position and the engine in neutral. Does that sound normal? It had really thick white smoke almost every time it started up which made me think it was flooding with that single pull. -House [/QUOTE]
