Thanks all for the tips and Armand for the generous offer to use your boat. If all goes well I should have it up and running in a couple of hours. I just have to reinstall the fuel gauge sending unit, install the live well and then I'll be ready to fire her up. Don I don't have a filter on it but will be installing one. I don't have any ring free but I do have some spray Seafoam which I hear does the same thing. After I've got it running I will use it to decarb the cylinders and hopefully make it run great, which it did before.
