Hi, I have a 1979 or so Mercury 5 hp. It was bogging down a WOT, but idles fine. Last summer I replaced the fuel pump, and cleaned the carb. It was still doing the bogging. What else could it be? Could it be the primer bulb on the gas tank? I hate to see the motor sitting, it used to run fine.Thanks for any info.
