my 2oohp v6 has always started right up with the shifter in neutral with no throttle.
now it floods instantly
the starter will turn a few cranks and then starter backs down after what sounds like maybe one cylinder firing
if i pull the spark plugs and blow out the gas, dry them and put them...
Well it is official, I pulled the lower unit and removed the water pump assembly and the shaft spins freely when the gear case is in gear.
Looks like a special tool may be needed to proceed further (has off ->). Anyone have a x-long drive shaft (measures 28 3/16" tip to housing. Also, it...
Was running 4500 rpms with my 1980 V200 Merc when it sounded like it was
thrown in neutral. Lucky that it did not blow up from over rev.
It shifts in to forward and reverse with no clunk and no prop spin, just revs up.
When in forwerd gear with the motor off, the prop locks as the lower unit...
My old 200 v6 Mercury trim has been slowly going out for a year. I could tap on top of the motor with a lead weight and it would raise up. Recently I tapped on it and it sounds like the motor is spinning disengaged from the pump. I ordered a new motor but am worried that the problem may be in...

I have a 1978 21 Hydrasports CC with a built in 60 gallon fuel tank. Can't get the ball to pump gas from the tank. Can blow back into tank and here it bubble (may be a little bit restricted). I am getting ready to poke the syphon tube good and replace the gas line. Maybe there is a small...
Was crusin on the ocean yesterday and she shut down on me. Went to crank and no fire - sea-tow!<br /><br />I am checking the ignition switch first. Ok - when you turn the key to on - should you get 12volts across the orange wire? Or should the orange just pulse weakly (using light) only when...
Guy rebuilt it for me last year. Shut off when breaking in. Started again after cooling down and ran good till hot again. Started one other time at home. Getting fire to plugs is hit or miss. What order should I follow to trouble shoot? Thanks!
1975 2cyl- finally got running good, and then started loosing rpm like starving for fuel.<br />I put a fuel pump on and carbs were recently rebuilt. After high rpm take off, looses power and then will not restart until next time completely cold. Second time I found tip of spark plug pressed...
