    Merc 350 Mag ign. problem

    :confused: This is the problem. I have been working on a terrible bog when going from idle to full throttle (i.e. pulling a skier up). Engine would accel to about 3k rpm then just bog and sit at 2500 for as long as you would let it. The boat would not plane unless you pulled the throttle back...

    WHAT CFM CARB DO I HAVE??

    Can someone tell me what the cfm is on my carb? It has two different primary rods in it and I am trying to do a basic setup using Edelbrock's site. It's either a 600 or a 750. Looking at my jet sizes (the primary's are bigger than the secondary's) makes me think that it is a 750 because that is...

    Today while servicing my Boat for the season I found out that I have no water pressure to the engine. I didn’t even realize that the ECU monitored water pressure. There is no gauge but there is a light with an obnoxious buzzer followed by a rising engine temp gauge after about 2 or 3 minutes...
