Here is a link to the original thread.<br /><br /> Engine wont take fuel.<br /><br />Wow, this has been going on for allmost two years!!!!!!!!! <br /><br />Anyway, Its all better! <br /><br />After replacing the reeds, intake gasket, different carbs all together, rejetting for sealevel both Idle and main, timing set on both ends and getting everything link and synched, the engine runs so good Its unbeleivable. So thats what a Merc 150 is suppose to run like! <br /><br />Yes, Im estatic, but I still dont know what was the problem for sure???????????????????????? <br /><br />If I had to guess, I would say that it was a combination of several things.<br /><br />As things were today, it ran 55.2 GPS at 5,700 RPMs. Im going to do a bunch of testing later, but it runs strong right now. I do know that I need to raise my engine if I want the most I can squeeze out of it, but its just too much trouble right now. I also need to lighten up on the Smart Tabs.<br /><br />Im a happy camper because I didnt do all that work for nothing
