    1999 3.0 Mercruiser has a rough idle and diesels on shutdown.

    My 1999 Mercruiser, 135hp has a rough idle and diesels when I turn it off. Also, when the motor is warm, I still need to give it throttle to get it started. Any ideas? Should I have the carb rebuilt or is there a "quick fix'? Maybe and OEM carb the works better? Any help would be great.
