Re: 60 hp merc engin will start but not stay running
Has the motor been sitting for a long time? If so read this: http://forums.iboats.com/showthread.php?t=158086
If this just started will pumping the primer bulb when it starts to die help? If so rebuild your fuel pump. If thats good you probably have trash in your carbs. Also check for a strong spark at all plugs.
