Just to provide this Forum THread with some more feedback...

Today I pulled the fuel vent host off the gas tank. I was able blow through that end of hose Volumes of air, which came out the back ot the boat.

No visible signs of obstruction, or any debris came out of the hose.
This eleimiates this as the problem.

The list is getting shoter...
If it's fuel related which I suspect, because the Carb bowl is dry after stalling,
the problem can only be the 'Electric fuel pump'. The Anti-Siphon valve was checked and was toi be found OK. Not sure what else it could be if fuel related?

Don't see how an ignition probllem could cause the lack of fuel to the Carb?

Well, any further diagnosis will have to wait until I arrive in Meredith this w/e.
