First a little info. I am running a 97 Mercury 200 HP offshore series 2 stroke carbed. Oil is mixed direct removed the injector system. Very little hours on the motor. Brand new plugs and brand new gas. The fuel bulb sometimes even before I run it seems to not get very hard but it runs well at...
First I have a qustion. I know the 2006 merc 225 efi 4 stroke is a yammie but does any one know about the issues on the VST (Vapor Seperator Tank). Been helping my friend with his. First question is on the high pressure fuel pump is the piece on the bottom a filter that comes off it is peaned...
I have 2 issues.
1. When I run the motor out it runs great I can run it for a hour or more no problems but when I stop and start it up after a decent run it boggs when I put it in gear. If I sit and rev the rpms in nuetral it will eventually go smooth and act as if no problems.
2. I had this...
I am having issues with my kicker motor it will start right up then it will die. It is a 4 stroke. I changed the plugs and the fuel pump and the bulb and fuel line. It is getting fuel to the bowl. I think I need to clean my carbs out. How can I do this easaly do I have to take the carbs off? I...
Are there any know issues with a 97 mercury 200hp off shore series. I will be running it in the gulf salt on a 21 ft Campion about 2600 lb boat. I am putting on a 19pitch high five stainless prop on it. This motor has the oil capped off so it is a premix. I had my choice of a 98 saltwater series...
The install seems preaty straight forward on the Poppet.
First let me start off in saying when I took the cover off I had a lot of salt water corrosion on the inside of the cover that touches the gasket.
Second from what I have read this was supposed to pop out since it is spring loaded. It did...
I have done all of the basics (Compresion, spark test and others rebuilt carbs). I cant seem to run this motor at low rpms 900 to 1000 is the lowest.
I have changed numerous parts the whole ignition system is replaced. I have had mechanics look at it. Still rpm problems then when it is low like...
If someone could assist.
When you set the timeing. The Mercury manual says TDC #1 piston and set flywheel to .464 then it stops I dont get it do you time it from this spot to hit the 21 degree mark on the flywheel BTDC or move the wheel to 0 and hit the 21 degrees BTDC mark.Everything else in...
I have been following the link and sync in the Merc manual some of it I do not understand fully.
One question is the first step when it says TDC the #1 piston and set fly wheel to 462 I think it means when the piston is all the way up is this true.
Another question is with the trigger screw on...
It starts fine goes into gear at idle runs fine.
When you push the lever forward it dies. So you can not pick up speed.
It lets you rev the motor in neutral.
What needs ajusting here?
There is no spark. Some of the things I checked are the Kill switch which is new I did the meter test provided by the manual, also I removed it still no spark. I found out I have a volt regulater on the motor which does not show up in the merc manual for a 175 1988 it looks like it burnt up.One...
If someone could assist. I have a v6 175 mercury black max. My motor shut down abruptly while cruising 3/4 throtle. The motor would not start after the starter turns but no start. I noticed while running the telltale was weak. No overheat alarms were present but the oil alarm was going on and...
