You could have any model seagull, from one cylinder, two cylinder, electronic ignition to basic Villiers, fuel pump Yes-No, electric start?

If you do indeed have a two cylinder Seagull then I would very much like to hear about it, and photos would be appreciated.

Otherwise it's most likely that your problem lies with the fuel supply.

[rob callighan]

thats a good question what is it got it yesterday .engine number is WS809HH6 .its a silver i know that and i think its a 4.5 hp it cannot find it on the seagull identifier

Silver Century, August 1976.

Clean your carb, banjo filter and tank out of any debris and you may find an improvement.

[rob callighan]

how do i get the crap out of the tank .taken it of the outboard now what ? dry it out then flush with petrol im i right ?

[Keith.P]

You could use pea gravel in the tank, a good shake and remove all gravel, a good rinse out, job done.

pea shingle + dishwasher tablet+hot water +latin american music and maraca practice will leave tank very clean------------------and destroy mesh filter on fuel tap----regards blue

[Keith.P]

There you go Blue knows it all, I expect he will be more than happy to answer all your questions.
