i just bought a 1985 mark twain boat. dont no much about them other then the fact that i wanted a boat. well it ran fine when we got it he also said it sticks after about a half hour to a hour drive, its a mercury 2 stroke 150hp engine we took it out yesterday for a test drive. it did fine, for a while then cut down to 3000rpms like he said, well then after about a hour of riding around it just cut out, i was thinking the problem may of started with the carbs, but my buddys dad thinks its a fuel line. Now that could be true to y it shut off but i dont think that would be the reason it keeps at 3000rpms. also the guy said it had only been a freshwater ran boat and we run salt water? can anyone help or shed some light on this situation????
