Re: dwell verses feeler guage merc 140 hp

I have a 86 4 banger also. The point is a 22 year old motor might not be setup to run as a brand new motor. Parts wear just a little i would think.

In my own inexpert opinion each motor is different, right after they leave the factory. No 2 will run the same.

Get yours to run as best as you can.

Go out and enjoy it. Good luck

Just got back.

All is good.

I am very happy with it's performance.

I know a 140 has never been known as a powerhouse but pretty much all we do is cruise to "our" island and the occasional tubing.

Like chiefalen says it is a 22 year old boat, but we like it just fine.
