    1986 vs 1999

    being jet would suck, no pun intended... would perform more like a 135/150 prop motor if ya lucky... world a difference in all parts upgrades... still BASIC gas/air/ fire motor but jus lots better.. probably one of tha most dependable mercs ever built.. me personally, i'm a lite weight hull, 2...

    Fuse blows between CDI pack , replace fuse but now engine bogs and slowly picks up speed

    that fuse has nothing to do with tha way it runs... you really need an oem manual for it.. way to many reasons as to why its doin' what its doin.. need ta be able ta actually see and hear whatcha trying ta describe.... sorry, jmo. straight from Merc. 1986 Outboard 2.0 Mariner Magnum 150MG [ELPTO]

    Blackmax reeds.

    tha "black sheaths" don't mean a thing.. its jus what merc uses ta kinda protect tha wires from heat and in a hap-hazard "bundle".. good luck with it!!!

    Question on year and Idle mixture screws for XR-6

    Blackmax reeds.

    i don't know how you determine which brown, white, violet match tha right switch box??? never had ta do that myself... seems like you could get them wrong pretty easily.... 3X 50/50 chance?

    Blackmax reeds.

    some good, a coupla of 'em not so good... back fire is usually one of two things.. timing and/or wiring (switch box/coil wiring usually)..... this could go back to how you "fixed" tha cut off trigger wires.. best ta bite tha bullet and geta new (used will probably work, they hardly ever go bad)...

    Question on year and Idle mixture screws for XR-6

    if ya wanna be 100% on year look here (pic) for a date stamp.. tha pic is ona high performance block but same applies to production blocks as well.. but in some cases tha date is hard to see and little more erratic with tha placement and depth of stamping.....

    Question on year and Idle mixture screws for XR-6

    "My best guess is a 1992 model." good guess! XR6 [ELPTO] 1992 - 0D167181 usually at 1 1/4 ta 1 1/2 turns are really close.... most that wanna "tweak on 'em" have other problems........
