i have a 14 hp Hyper Drive that i'm having a bear of a time getting to run in cold weather i had it out on saturday on a river and the engine would not keep running( not good when your fighting a current) it would run for five minutes and then just stop i could turn it over and it would take a couple of seconds and just start right back up. I have had this problem for a while and i talked to the guys at mud buddy, at first we thought carb icing so i built a shroud to pull heat off the muffler, the they thought it was water in the line so i added iso-heat to the gas, and i even ran the tank dry on friday night then put fresh gas in on the way out saturday morning along with the iso-heat and it still is doing it, i'm still suspecting that the gas is slushing up because if it was carb icing it would slowly start running rich, but this just runs full bore and then shut down like it starved for gas, i have a 14' boat so i'm running the gas tank in the front for balance purposes so it's got about a ten foot gas line, but it's never had the problem till it got cold, mud buddy has just told me tough luck and that i'll just have to deal with it O|* O|* O|* O|* O|* O|* -------Does anyone have any ideas
