My Yamaha T8 has been very easy to start and always ran very smootly.
That is until last weekend - I had been using it for trolling for a couple of hours, but then after using the main to move from one spot to another, it suddenly was very hard to start, and when it finally ran, it appeared sluggish as if the carb was flooded, or choke sticking.
I also noticed that there is fuel in the water behind the boat.
What could be wrong?
I have been running the kicker from a portable tank and there is no filter other than the small one on the motor.
