The takeaway is that engines need air to combust so blockage of air to an engine may be a reason the outboard wont start. If there is a conceivable reason why you wont have access to a hose or a water source and you need to start the engine then it is imperative that you remove the lower leg where the water pump is located.

How to start an outboard motor. Engine tilted fully down this makes it easier for fuel to get to the carburetors. Squeeze primer bulb till firm. Advance throttle in neutral to 23s.
Turn key on push to choke or pull out choke and crank at same time. Release choke return throttle to neutral after ignition. Push in the key turn to start and hold it in until the outboard starts up.
If the motor begins to stumble at this point bump the key again to engage the choke primer. At this point the motor should be warmed up and running independently. Put the motor in neutral and place the throttle in.
This page will hopefully give you some useful information on how to Start a small 2 stroke outboard motor. To pull the rope place one hand on the engine to give some resistance to pull against. Pull the ropes handle slowly to engage the pawl and then give it a swift steady pull.
Five Steps to Starting an Older 2-Stroke Outboard Engine. Engine tilted fully down this makes it easier for fuel to get to the carburetors. Squeeze primer bulb till firm.
Advance throttle in neutral to 23s. Turn key on push to choke or pull out choke and crank at same time. To begin the first cycle the starter motor is required.
By turning the key the starter begins spinning and then in turn spins the engine over. Once the engine begins spinning the combustion begins and will continue to run the engine without the need of the starter. Outboard Motors need three things.
The presense of fuelpetrolgas being delivered in right mix. Compression in the combusion chamber. A source of correctly timed ignition.
An issue with any one of these three things or the presence of any environment inhibitors eg. Water ingress will mean a dificult to start or more likely non-starting engine. When you start your outboard motor engine spark plugs conduct electricity from one end and use this to ignite air which creates the combustion that starts the boat.
The fuel filters prevent water that gets into the fuel from getting into the system. Depending on the size of the outboard engine itself and ambient temperatures it may be able to go a few minutes without damage. Always run your water-cooled outboard with a source of water.
If there is a conceivable reason why you wont have access to a hose or a water source and you need to start the engine then it is imperative that you remove the lower leg where the water pump is located. Squeeze the primer bulbs on the hose that leads up to the outboard engines. Give them about five solid pumps.
This sends fuel into the engine so it will take a spark. How do you start a flooded outboard motor. To restart when flooded open the throttle all the way with no choke to admit as much air as possible and crank the motor until the excess fuel is expelled.
If the plugs are soaking wet you can dry them first with compressed air or laid out in the hot sun to aid starting. Five Steps to Starting an Older 2-Stroke Outboard Engine. Engine tilted fully down this makes it easier for fuel to get to the carburetors.
Squeeze primer bulb till firm. Run your motor make sure it in the water or on flushing muffs and hold the choke on until it dies either by pushing in the key or holding the choke switch This will flood the motor. To make sure it is really flooded.
Keep holding the choke on and try to start it it should be impossible to start. Five Steps to Starting an Older 2-Stroke Outboard Engine. Engine tilted fully down this makes it easier for fuel to get to the carburetors.
Squeeze primer bulb till firm. Advance throttle in neutral to 23s. Turn key on push to choke or pull out choke and crank at same time.
Prime up the fuel turn the key and hopefully start and run the engine. If you are going to let the engine sit and run for a while which is a pretty good idea to do. I would advise using the earmuffs as opposed to the flush attachment.
There is absolutely nothing wrong with running an outboard engine using the flushing port on the engine. Boat engines need air they just dont necessarily need filtered air. The takeaway is that engines need air to combust so blockage of air to an engine may be a reason the outboard wont start.
Essentially there are four contributing factors to an outboard engine not starting. Bad fuel bad fuel flow bad air flow bad sparks. Run your motor make sure it in the water or on flushing muffs and hold the choke on until it dies either by pushing in the key or holding the choke switch This will flood the motor.
To make sure it is really flooded. Keep holding the choke on and try to start it it should be impossible to start. Now simply give it full throttle on the.
Few things are more exciting for a boater than the start of warm weather and the promise of setting off to sea under clear blue skies. If you own a small vessel like a fishing boat or dinghy you might have invested in an outboard motor for a little propulsion. The following guide overviews the basic parts of a tiller-operated outboard motor and how to hook one up to your boat.
This video will teach you how to correctly care for and run-in your brand new Yamaha 4-Stroke outboard motor to ensure the longevity and legendary reliabilit. Starting an outboard boat engine out of the water can be done by using a tool called a Moeller Flushrite Boat Motor Flusher. This tool is designed to look like ear muffs so that it can firmly attach itself to the inlet vents on the motor.
The inlet vent is what sucks the water in to cool off the engine while it is running.
