So I have a 1988 Mercury Mariner 3cyl. 75hp outboard. I have had this take off problem I cant pin point maybe someone here can help. When I give it throttle it wants to fall on its face and die. Most of the time to take off I have to floor it and then it either a 50/50 chance it will go. It only does it in water and in gear. If I have a hose and muffs hooked up revs up no problem. So im thinking the guy before me put the wrong prop on causing these issues. Its a stainless turbo prop says M13 1/4 x 18 on the back. Can some confirm this would cause my motor to bog down?
Also I have done everything else I can think ofthat it could be including timing and fuel pump rebuild. Only thing I have yet to try is prop which makes sense to me to be the culprit. Any Help is appreciated if you need any other information let me know and I can get it.
Thanks,
Greg
