    1984 Mercury 60hp 3cyl water in top cylinder

    Good evening. I've got a problem with water intrusion into the top cylinder (only) on my 3 cylinder Mercury. Yesterday i had it out on the water and it started fine, putzed away from the boat launch fine, ran perfectly for two miles up the lake at probably 2/3 throttle, and then I throttled...

    45HP Mercury 4 cyl (80's) possible Stator problems?

    Hello! I just bought a 1966 Corson with an 80's vintage 45hp Mercury motor (OB205350, I think-it's pretty faded). It runs fine above 2000RPM (ish) but doesn't idle. PO replaced the switchbox and plugs, also cleaned the carbs and replaced the fuel filters thinking it was a fuel delivery...
