[QUOTE="reddevilwoodsman, post: 263587, member: 6118"] Some of the symptoms sound a lot like the symptoms of a plugged fuel vent. How is your fuel line plumbed? Does it go directly to the tank or is it tee'd into the main motor gas line? I have a 2011 9.9 Pro Kicker and when it was brand new, it was very touchy. I ended up taking the carb apart and cleaning it but I had to do that only once or twice in the first season that I had it. It's worked fine since. I've read all of the things about you have to run them out of gas, etc., but I have never done that and it's ran perfectly since 2011 when it was brand new. I thought having to run them empty of gas after each use was B.S. too. I add Mercury fuel conditioner every time I fill gas, add STA-BIL and run it through prior to storage every winter. I don't even run it out of gas prior to winter storage and it always takes right off every spring. [/QUOTE]
