Tsubaki. That's pretty funny because now that I think about it my son in law has never mentioned a single word about it being difficult to start!!!
Ferm,thanks I'll look into that gasket... By the way I can't believe what a fan I have become of the outboards as apossed to the I/o's I've had my entire life... I've been seriously searching for a 23/24 footer with a deep wide walk around to replace my 20.5 Pursuit hull which is a flush deck walk around and as much as I am a fan of the full transome I find my self shying away from the I/o's now!!!

dont feel bad i had the same issue, my old man was the one telling me to push the choke rapidly and i just didnt know any better until i was shown the correct way.

I also had the same gas oi dripping problem on my 88 johnson... mine also loved her fuel. Sure you didnt get my old engine and put an evinrude cowl on it lol!
