check around your prop on the shaft and see if you have any nylon string bogging down the motor if not, and it kinda just idles itself down tikl it dyes your going to need to bend you idle tab out. is it a sudden die or less and less rpm then dyes?

You may need to clean out your pilot jet (I believe that's it)

Take bowl off carb carefully not to damage the gasket, unscrew the jet, spray w/ carb cleaner and blow out w/ compressed air.

Only takes a few minutes to do...easy place to start


I'm guessin you made it off the water?? Just noticed the time you posted thread
