Okay, I had an old Johnson 6 gal gas can in the garage sitting for 10 years that was GF's grandfathers. I dumpped the gas and refilled it. Put new gas line on it.
Took my new-to-me Johnson 9.5 out and it started great and ran fine for about 5 min. It started lagging a bit but I was at my fishing spot so i turnned it off and used the TM. After a while I tried to start it again but it would not start.
My theory (and question) is that the old gas tank had some internal line issues and it probably gunked up the carb? If so should I be able to just clean the carb and get a new tank, or do I need to rebuild it with a kit and get a new tank?
