I am having an issue with my 1969 Mercury 500 50hp running poorly and stalling. The fast idle does not rev very fast. When I had in out in the water it would idle rough and soon as I put it into gear at low speed it would die. Once I get it running and at full throttle on the controls it is not have any power and sounds like she is missing as she is sputtering. If I advance the ignition driver more forward then it is in forward gear at wot it starts to sound much better. I rebuilt carbs and fuel pump last year. I think the timing is out of sink with the carbs. Please help!!!!.
