Although I never had a problem with my boat motors, it cost me $200 bucks to find out the ethanol gas raises hell with my Honda Rubicon ATV. The mechanic told me he fixes a Honda just about every day that has been using ethanol gas. Apparently the fuel fuses the needle to the seat in the carburetor (dissimilar metals or electrolysis??) or something like that, that prevents the flow of gas to the engine.
Since this fiasco, I have been running non-ethanol gas in all of my small engines including the boat.
