Help,,,
I have a 1983 115hp Mercury and I have taken it to a couple of shops. They tell me that they think it is the ReedBasket now I am mechanically inclined and a millwright by trade.. The engine will idle sometimes then it is stalls and will not pick up rpms..How much trouble is it to change these reeds out. compression is about average 118 for all 6 cylinders. I would think that it would be a more costly to have them do it. Whats my next step and thank you..
