My sea ray 135hp won't start after 3 months storage
 
pour a little gas down the throat of the carb
I feel so dumb but looks like there's 3 carbs on my 135hp sea ray motor. I am familiar with older car engines but don't know anything about boat motors.

Maybe you have the Chrysler sourced Six-Pack option?

HAHA!

Does it crank?
No? check battery and starter.

Yes?
Check for spark.
Got spark? Then just like Scoflaw said, a little gas down the carb or even a good long (3-4 second) shot of carb cleaner should get it to run for a few seconds.
