I have a mercury 175 black max early nineties. It runs really good when its running. But the only way to start it is by putting up the choke lever all the way up every time. Wait for it to roar then tone it down. Is that normal for this motor, am I damaging the motor, or is there something that I can do. Another thing is that when I do have a problem starting it, sometimes I flood the motor. What's the best thing to do when that happens?
