wont start

[TarHeeLBoater]

4.3 was 1/2 full of gas last season now gage says its emty.New battery drains fast when trying to start.What puzzles me is the no fuel now and the battery is new end of last season. I put gas in carb and still no start.I guess a carb rebuild is in order and its 80s here. I have been thinking of switching to sail mabe my boat heard me lol

Somebody siphon your gas???

It should fire somwhere if you put gas down the carb. I doubt you need a Carb rebuild on just that fact.
Did you look down the carb to see if the acceleration pump is working?

Look to see if you have spark.

On the missing gas, be sure your fuel guage is working and is correct. Put two gallons in the tank and see if the guage reflects that.
