Hard start on one engine
#6
Hi all, sorry to jump on but i'm having similar issue.  '94 454 xl's on a 31 open.  I can't start the motors.  They've been running fine. Wondering if now I have a fuel vent issue. both motors were tuned up in the spring.  I have swapped the fuel filter on the port with gas in it, and it fired right up but did not keep running.  And I have tried all combinations of tank crossovers. I hear the fuel pump run on the port.  Haven't played with stbd yet as i'm pretty sure its the same issue.

The boat was painted over the winter and they let the overboards plugged.  The vents were taped, so I'm wondering if there's some residue blocking them.  Whats strange is I have run the boat about 100 miles this summer with no issues, and filled it once.

thx
