  If your Monterey Toy engine won't crank, several issues could be the cause. First, ensure the engine stop switch is properly connected and that the shift/throttle control is not in gear. Check if the main circuit breaker is open. Also, inspect the battery terminals for corrosion and clean or replace them if necessary. A weak battery could also be the culprit, so consider replacing it. Finally, make sure all battery wiring connections are tight and free of corrosion; tighten or replace them as needed. If these steps don't resolve the issue, consult your engine owner’s manual.

  If your Monterey Toy engine cranks but refuses to start, begin by ensuring there is fuel in the tank. If the tank is full, the next step is to replace the fuel filter if it's clogged.

  Poor gas mileage in your Monterey Toy can be attributed to a few common issues. One potential cause is a plugged flame arrestor, which should be cleaned or replaced. Another factor could be incorrect engine trim, so adjust it appropriately. Marine growth on the hull can also reduce efficiency, so clean it off. If these steps don't improve gas mileage, consult your engine owner’s manual.
