Re: anyone know anything about boats
its a 1971 evinrude two stroke it has points but they dont look fried and i dont see why it would be out of time because last year i drove it all around its starting to piss me off because it starts once and awhile and runs alright then just shuts off

So it's been sitting for a year? Chances are you have oil clogging all kinds of ---- up. Clean the fuel system. I know you said it's getting gas, but maybe it's getting too much gas.

check the flywheel key it might have crapped out on ya and that will shoot the whole system
try cleaning the points with some 120 grit sandpaper and check the gapping on them pull carbs and clean them |
