My son and I went out on the South River yesterday afternoon while my wife and daughter went to the beauty salon as part of her Mothers Day. Started right up and ran very good. The only issue be it a minor one is at low idle for extended periods can cause a stutter and sometimes stall when I go to get her up to full speed. I have to have a real feel for the throttle and ease it at the beginning and then she kicks in good. I lived with this last summer and it didn't really bother me. I used a product from Lowes called Blaster 50 in the lawn mower section and took the plugs out and sprayed it in the cylinders and let it soak in for 15 minutes before I turned her over. Ran strong after that. I bought it with no intention of using it on the outboard but it worked so good on my mowers and the can said it works for outboards and other small engines I said "What the Hell"! Also as a rule/habit i always pull the fuel hose off and let the motor run dry at the dock. What do you guys think of that? Should I bother doing that?
