'82 40 hp Merc outboard on 16' Fisher Marine. Took out first time this weekend and motor did not seem to sound right. Put her in the water she starts fine, pull to the dock to get wife and kid, cannot get it to start again (15-20 min). Starts, we run awhile cuts out at idle, wont start for awhile again, took cover off was going to pull fuel filter, tried it once w/ cover off, started, here is the kicker if I put the cover back on the motor would quit! I am no rocket scientist but that aint right, what at diy stuff can I do to "clean up" motor,fuel filter, plugs etc.. Any suggestions?
Sorry for the ramble very frustrated as I picked it up from the shop on friday, was under the impression they would check it all out for me!
