I have a 2002 Honda 130 4-stroke on my pontoon boat. This motor had not been cranked since Oct '08 until this morning. Having put a good dose of Sta-bil in the gas when last run, I did not change out gas...just put the water ears on, squeezed the bulb, hit the ignition and she cranked immediately and idled as smooth as when it was new. I let it idle for about 10 minutes...it was peeing good...nothing looked out of the ordinary. I cut it off and heard a humming near the engine that sounded like a small electrical motor which kept going for at least 5 minutes...I disconnected the battery and humming stopped...reconnected battery and humming was still gone. I would assume that either a switch had stuck or whatever was humming was supposed to do that for a while after cutting motor off...any ideas?
