I bought a skeeter from con man last year and never reallyhad the kicker run. It is a very new Yamaha 4hp. Well now I cannot get her to start. Would anyone like to give me a hand I live near Smith and Edwards. I could meet some where too.
Thanks

Thanks alot man

Have you checked the spark plug? A gummed spark plug is common on outboards (don't know abour four strokes, but sure is a problem on two strokes). Also if you didn't replace the fuel it may have gone bad on you.

It's not the fuel it has a fuel line from the main tank. But I will check the spark plug. I can;t believe I haven' t pulled it yet. I kinda thought I was a decent mechanic. I guess I really haven't put oo much effort into because I really don't need it. I use the big motor and the electric troller for everything.
Thanks Kent

On more than one occasion I have used my kicker to get in after my main outboard has failed me. Always good to have a "Plan B".

Hey thanks for the advice guys. I finally found some time to tear my kicker apart and pulled the spark plug and it looks as if it was sitting in oil and lit on fire. So I will be changing that and the fluids today.
But I still may need some help later.
Thanks
