Thanks for the info on the tank Terry. I tried to fire it today, I drained the old gas out of the motor and feed it with new gas, but the fuel pump is partially gummed up, we can hear it run but it is sluggish. My marine buddy is running the pump tonite in his cleaning tank and he said sometimes this will starighten it out. He says this is normal with motors that sit for a while and is becoming more common with the ethenol in the fuel.

I'm working on it, I'll have it running soon. You will have to come down one weekend and run the boat after we get her going.
