Our procedure, me and makinwaves:. Set high idle, hold choke crank, let off starter after 10 seconds. Grab either, shoot into bcarbs, crank, cuss, sputter. Tear off housing, spray ether in all three carbs, crank, fire, goes to 5000 rpm and fills marina with smoke. Mash starting lever down, cough, sputter, and die. Crank again, nothing, spray ether, crank, sputter. Crank untill battery can no longer turn engine over. Cuss at everything in your way while sweat burns your eyes and all your friends have left in their boats. Return to dock with spare battery, jump start, more ether, then back to a 5000 rpm blast, at which time you try to fanagle the fast idle and shifter to allow it in gear with some semblance of rpm left. More cough and sputter, but in reverse and leaving dock. Pulling away from dock, back to nuetral and working the fast idle to shift into forward.
