alright motor guys, I Have a 06 mercury 90 Optimax that has an issue. Today I took my boat out, and like normal cranked it up to idle at the boat ramp. At first ran fine then suddenly choked out. I cranked it again, it ran for a few seconds then choked out again. Took the boat out and began working with the fuel. Drained the water out of the fuel pump, cleaned gas lines, put in fuel treatment in tank, and still nothing. When I crank the motor it will only fire if I push choke in, when I simply crank its like it is getting no fuel.
I believe the problem to be the fuel pump but don't want to dive into a $100 part and it be some kind of sensor or something.
Has anyone else had this issue with this motor or any other motor, just looking for some insight
