How long does a gas engine run for?
Gas was drained and refilled with new – it was also clean. Engine runs for a few minutes (3 – 5). Then it sputters real bad — sounds like knocking. Then dies. Seems like it is getting worse. It doesn’t even run long enough for the engine to warm up. I replaced the fuel pump.

Why does my outboard start and run for 1 minute then dies?

What to do if your Mercedes 300 starts?
You will need to check these items when the car is in a ‘failed state’. Carry a spare spark plug so that you can pull a lead off and earth the body of the plug to the engine, crank the engine and you should see a spark, this will illimnate the ignition as at fault, if you have a spark then i would look into the fuel system.
