"Monnie, I work on alot of these little Merc's and it has been my experience that when you get a backfire such as you describe it is "usually" a bad gasket in the exhaust end of things.

Either the gasket for the exhaust cover (side of the motor) or the gasket between the powerhead/plate/exhaust housing.

Additionally, a powerhead that is not torqued down properly to the leg will cause a backfire with a small puff of white smoke (that usually exits underneath the carb)...."
 
Will this also cause the motor

Will this also cause the motor to die under a load? The motor seems to run fine then dies while I am under way at low speed. It starts after dieing with just one pull.
It acis like it not getting gas?
