    1987 50 Mercury rough idling

    My mercury will crank easily, idles and runs rough and will not plane out :mad: . It acts like it only running at half speed. I have changed plugs, rebuilt fuel pump and checked gas lines. It had good compression. Any suggestions.<br /><br /><br />Thanks <br />Ricky

    Replaced bendix on Starter on Mercury

    I replaced the bendix on the starter and I misplaced the nut that goes on top of the starter. Could someone tell what size the nut is? It is a mercury 50 horsepower 1987. The local boat dealer was not very helpful.<br /><br />Thanks

    mercury 50 starting problem

    I have a mercury 50 1987 and it is hard to start when cold. I put a new bendix on the starter 2 weeks ago and now it is worn down like the other one. Are the two problems connected? Thanks in advance for any response.<br /><br />Ricky
