[QUOTE="BillG, post: 267923, member: 7424"] Hello everyone, It has been awhile since I've visited the site. I have made some accomplishments on the boat but, i'm still not in the water. I managed to fire the engine but, am having a problem with the carbs flooding. The flooding occurs only after the engine is warm. I have to push the key in and turn to start but, this also activates the choke. The choke is what I believe is causing the carbs to flood. I really don't know how my controls are supposed to operate. I am going to take some pictures and post them so I can get some feedback on how they work. Is the choke supposed to activate everytime the engine is turned over? I removed both carbs and cleaned. I also adjusted the floats according to the manual I have. On a cold start the engine runs fine. If I let it warm up and stop it and then try to restart is when I have my problems. All help is very welcome. [/QUOTE]
