Hi Folks,
I hope you can help me out with this 5.0 Merc MPI W/ Alpha 1 . It takes 10-15 turns of the key to start. It acts like the timing is off, It sputters and smokes out the spark arrestor. However, once It starts it runs fine. Every start after that, it cranks right up. I start it in the morning (15 turns) before hitting the water and it cranks up all day (first turn). Had the rotor and cap, IAC, shifts interrupts, knock sensor replaced.
Any help is much appreciated.
