Might want to post this in the Mechanics Corner. More of the right people will see it there.
As a fellow Blount County resident, this is how I deal with my engine problems.

Contact Louisville Marine and ask for Chris. He has forgotten more about outboards than most will ever know.
Is this a two stroke or four stroke motor ? Carbs or fuel injected ?
Check your fuel line.
Its a 2 stroke and has carbsQuote:

Get a spray can of Deep Creep....spray in carb throats real good....let sit over night then spray again....pour a bottle of Sea Foam in the gas. If it cranks up....run the snot out of it. You can get these at WalMart....automotive dept.

If gas is more than couple months old, Empty tank and lines, then fill with FRESH gas!

If you are sure there is gas in carbs check if spark plugs are wet sure you have good spark better check compression
Its fresh gasQuote:

What type of fuel pump does your engine have? Sounds like same issue I troubleshot awhile back on a 70hp E-rude, turned out to be a faulty diaphragm-style fuel pump.
I'm not 100% sure but I think it is a diaphragmQuote:
