"I have a 3-cyl 50hp Mercury that was running great all summer. I went to go out duck hunting and ran it up the night before. It starts normally with the choke and fast idle lever engaged but when it warms up and I put the lever back to normal at neutral position the motor stalls at idle. I checked the gas/tank,fuel line primer bulb, changed the spark plugs,cleaned out the fuel filter,pump and even checked the enrichment solenoid valve as well as the CDMs for spark. All are good. I use stabilizer in all the gas even before the ethanol additive hit the market.The throttle and shift linkage are ok too? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated."
 
discount the cables at the mot

discount the cables at the motor and see if you can shift and throttle up on the motor
