    3.0L stalls from 1200 to 2000 RPM

    I have a 2007 Bayliner with a 3.0L Merc I/O. At idle, it will run real rough and stall if you try and gas it slowly between 1200 rpm and 2000 rpm. If you nail the gas it bogs and then takes off.

    I broke 3.0L Mercruiser throttle linkage

    I was tightening the throttle linkage back on my 3.0L Merc I/O and it snapped off. It's the piece on the carb. I can't be the first person to have done this. Is there any place I can buy one? The boat is a 2007 Bayliner.

    1973 110 carb problem

    I recently bought a 12ft fiberglass boat. It is old and has a lot of paint on it. I sanded off all of the loose stuff. This boat will be stored on a trailer. I am looking for a cheap paint. Any suggestions?

    Mercruiser 3.0L poor idle

    The boat is an 2007 Bayliner 19ft bowrider with a 3.0L Merc in it. We took delivery of it in 2008 as a left over. The idle was always a little low and rough. Now the boat will not idle. It just stalls. It has about 50hrs on it. Any suggestions what might fix this? I don't want to pull it and tow...

    Fuel primer sucking in

    Another problem on my in-laws boat. It's a 1986 Grady 19 Tournament with a 1996 Johnson 150 Oceanmaster on it. I was running it the other day and the buzzer went on so I shut it down. Let it sit a few minutes and it ran again. After a few more minutes the buzzer went on again. I notice the fuel...

    Max rpm on 1996 150 Oceanrunner

    My in-laws just bought a 1986 19ft Grady with a 1996 Johnson 150 Oceanrunner on it. With approx 20 gal fuel in it and just the driver it maxes out at 5200 rpm. Is this in the correct range?
