Hey all, I am going to start up my 318 engine on a boat i just got. It hasent been started in over a year. Before that it was running fine. Is there anyting i should do besides check oil, plugs etc...before i try to turn over? I will be doing on its trailer with a flushmaster kit and super renforced water hose.
Any advice will be well taken. Thanks all...Chris

Make certain the carb is free of obstructions. We recently pulled the old snowplow truck out to give it a once over and found a nice bees nest as well as a mouse nest in the aircleaner. So if there exists any holes in the spark arrester you might have a similar problem. Also make certain the fuel is drained if you are uncertain of the length of time down or if stabilizer was not added.
