    It would be a better comparison a 2 cylinder OMC 50 idles every bit as well as a 4 cylinder merc. And has a better torque curve. But we are off topic because Texas Mark got his feelings hurt. Let's go back to the OPs original post.

    Well I bet you I can get a 50s OMC 25 hp to idle better than you can't get a 50s Mercury 4 cylinder 25 hp to idle.

    Well I would imagine your 115 with all the jury rigging done to it doesnt idle all that great. When I hear people talk about the tower of power Smooth idle is not the first thing mentioned. More cylinders does not mean better idling , the best idling motors are the old OMC 2 cylinder outboards...

    All I said was they did it to improve idle quality in that motor. What your I6 has to do with anything is beyond me. But it seems to have your undies in a bunch.

    The plastic gear can last a lifetime. What kills them is overheating.

    I will disagree with the trolling aspect. I know a lot of people who have trolled with those and have no issues.

    How is it built like no other 2 strk? All they did was take the idle circuit out of the carb, Hardly groundbreaking. More than likely an attempt at lowering emissions and improving idle quality.

    Explained several times in this post. It's a very simple system.

    Not what it means at all.

    2+2 means it idles on the top 2 cylinders and around 1800 RPM the bottom 2 kick in and it starts running on all 4 cylinders.

    All the 4 cylinder 100/115/125 hp motors are 2+2 engines.

    Carbs have bigger throats on the 125 hp.

    Make sure you test drive it. All the 4 cylinder mercury 2+2 topped out at 5250 rpms and not all had tev limiter. Trying to rev one of those to 6000 Rpm is a good way for inside bits to become outside bits.

    The 3 and 4 cylinder mercury engines have excellent oil injection systems. No need to disable it.
