    Won't acccelerate

    Ahhhhh...it a dealer warranty as they dressed out the new powerhead. Just moved the problem from original to the new. If it a mechanical issue Merc or a reputable reman company will have to warranty it.

    Won't acccelerate

    Even if its NOS at a dealer, warranty begins when sold unless dealer/MFG policy's have changed over the years.

    Mercury 135 not running

    Most likely cause was the idle stablizer/advance box. Chunk it and set max timing at 21°. A single cylinder running lean is a timing/fuel (carb) problem

    No spark on half the motor!

    More likely its bad stator, flip the brown connectors from stator to oppisite sides

    Another Charging issue...

    Its only a 16amp output @ 5K RPM, 1/2 that at 2500 (8amp) and 1/2 that at above idle RPM (4 amp) and the new style rect/reg will charge slower at lower RPMS.

    1985 Johnson 120hp poor idle/starting

    The small bores where briged port engines and bad about scuffing exhaust side of piston. Tis resulted in low crankcase compression to drive fuel pump and pull a smaller F/A mix. Also your carbs are fixed jet so no adjustments

    Johnson engine family

    You have a 2003 White Johnson and only powerhead parts from 2001-2006 60° carb engines will fit. 1991 and up V6 gearcases will interchange with a driveshaft/shift rod swap

    Water testing new to me 115 HO Etec, and Prop size.

    Totally 2 different engines. The 2009 was a 60° looper design and the 2019 is the 3 cylinder G2 series. It should have the V6 diameter lower unit and will likey require a prop exchange, Now depending on what you are installing it on as performance hull will likely need to go up a pitch. A toon...

    1985 Johnson 120hp poor idle/starting

    Nedd to check DVA output when it dies. Could be a bad connection in stator and when it gets hot, epoxy expands and breaks connection.

    1985 Johnson 120hp poor idle/starting

    Compression? VRO still in service? Spark must be able to jump a minimum 3/8 open air gap with bright blue snap. If not DVA check stator output. These early small bore loopers are not the best idlers

    Mercury 135 not running

    See this quite a few times with DIY repairs. Damages repaired but problem not fixed. Like a ol Chevy, ya fix the rusted rocker panel but dont address the drain hole which caused it to rust

    Mercury 135 not running

    Someone has replaced that piston already as not OEM. Most likely the advance module is bad as that is detonation damage.
