Boat either ran out of gas. DUH Or has a bad fuel pump. OUCH

What did the girls look like?

vapor lock ? did it stall or would it not restart? no restart could be vapor lock..

And you "ran out of gas"...

Also check for an inline filter by the carb, they can become plugged and prevent fuel flow. You can always undo your fuel line and turn the motor over a couple of revs to see if there's fuel getting that far, just be careful where the line is pointed they can shoot a long way

Removed fuel filter at carb and it looks like new-carb was new 2 months ago
Cranked a few times with line off at carb and nothing came out,

Put $60 in Sunday but did not fill it-need friends that spend more
Dragging tube or a skier burns fuel but I did not think I used that much
Yesterday we only went from launch to PNC park by Navy Ship then the motor stalled while sitting there.

I am looking for brochure for my 1992 G20 BR Glastron to see what size fuel tank I have.
Tried to find info online with no luck.
Just curious

I know my Checkmate could go through 25-35 gal in an hour running it hard and would fill it up 2-3 times a day with 93oct and a can of 104+
Never really paid attention to fuel consumption on this one

I did check oil when I was out there-level was good.
Wanted to change it this week but can't find my removal pump.
I also have electric pumps but the hand pump that screws onto the dipstick hole works best.
Might try to fit a connection there and try electric again.
Last time I used electric was a cold day and it would not suck the oil up the skinny hose.

If you need a little help call Lenny at Millvale Marina, Excellent mechanic!
What marina are you from? I dock at Millvale and spend alot of time down the river.

I've had a horror story with my 90HP Johnson - today I took it to the lake for the 3rd time (they've had it over 2 months) - still same problem - took it back - now he thinks it's the fuel pump, so I have to wait for him to order it, etc. The beat goes on! Good luck with yours.

I did not fill the tank last night or get a chance to look at it today.
I don't know how big the tank is either.
Today I plan on filling the tank then seeing if it starts.

To get to the underside of my engine I need to remove the upper dog house then both seats and lower section come out as one large piece. Then remove the panel behind one of the seats.
They make a remote oil drain that works like a manual choke but I would still have the problem of hooking up the hose.

Other choice might be to just remove the drain plug and catch what I can or just let it run outside into a pan then pressure wash the bilge at a carwash.
I have a couple of pressure washers but don't want the oil running out onto the ground.
Car washes have oil/grease traps.

And you "ran out of gas"...

They never even got on boat yesterday
Left me with the bimbo I started with-yuck she is my age

 
That trik only werks in cOwbuy's mUstange duUd//

Filter at carb was clean.
I removed and dumped out water separator fuel filter.
Did not have another on boat to switch.
I changed that filter in spring and new filter was at home.

Would that filter stop fuel flow????????

Would that filter be the reason for no flow Wednesday night?????
Do they stop fuel flow after they trap too much water?

I plan on putting a new one on and filling it with fuel first. 

I did not think that was my problem but just wanted to check
Boat has been out 2-3 times a week and used a lot of fuel.
Has not sat long enough to cause problem unless fuel I bought was bad.
With the summer alcohol mix who knows.

water seperator and as gas goes 1mile or less per gal is a good ruel of thumb check to see what the gas looks like

Thank you!
I never got a chance to look at it yet.
Was going out this afternoon to fill tank, prime new filter then drop it in the river to see if it starts.
Plans got changed-small jobs most of the day-now the crew abandoned me.
Some went away for the weekend or are working tonight.
When it runs they sure line up to get on it though.

Might try to disappear to work on it now but tenants or employer keep finding me.

I hope it is me just not realizing how much gas I used.
Last few times I got gas I did not fill it so it may of been close to empty Sunday when I added $60

Primed filter, cranked the engine a few times and it fired.
Figuring on just getting some gas to the pump then hit it with ether tomorrow.
Oil level is good.

Geez. Sounds like you fed them after midnight.
