A while back Iposted about my Merc Black Max 175 bogging down and shutting off at higher rpms. Took it to shop. Mechanic said motor checks out fine (compression, sparks, temp), he ran for a long while without trouble, but found a hose on the fuel pump loose. He fixed, and today I took it to the water, and as usual, ran fine from idle to 1/2 throttle.
Kick it up to 3/4 to full throttle, and it runs for about 2 minutes before starting to slow down on it's own. I bring back to idle, and keeps going fine. I really have no idea what could be causing the problem.
Any help/thoughts appreciated.
Thanks.
