    Motor Height Question

    I did lower the motor a few inches, BUT I also ordered a Poppet Valve assembly and a Thermostat kit as well. Going to get those swapped out this week. The Poppet Valve essentially fell out when I unbolted the cover plate, and had some salt corrosion on it as well. Could have definitely been the...

    I have a 2002 Mercury 90hp EPLTO that I just purchased. Motor runs great, love it. The only issue I have is that the motor wont cut off with the key. I either have to use the kill switch, or choke it out. While that works, I would much rather have things functioning as they should. The control...
