The 50 HP Mercury outboard starts, idles and runs slowly great. but when I move the throttle to faster, it does not speed up. Is there some kind of linkage that I need to adjust (and how) or do I have a motor problem and if so do you know how to cure it? I am open to suggestions. Thanks :cool:
 
Look at the top carb and open the throttle in FORWARD. Did the carb open all the way? If not, fix it.
