Ive been tinkering with my Evinrude 9.9,,,and it only starts half the time and when it does,,,its runs crapy for like 10-15 secs and dies out,now Im not a outboard mechanic, but do know a thing or two bout workin on small engines. Well I took out the needle valve and noticed that the retainer in it was missin a decent size chunk,but in process of me backing it out, I gave it a few pulls,,and when I did it really sounded like it wanted to fire up and run. well with me looking at the grimy retainer and touched it,,it just fell apart. Any of you fellas think that is my problem,,,,and any one know of where I might be able to pick one up in Virginia, with out me driving all over the place,,lol Thanks for any info,,,Robert
