I own a 1964 9.8 horsepower Kiekhaefer Mercury outboard. About a year or so ago a moronic friend of mine dropped the motor from a height of about 3-4 feet. When I went to start the motor I had a really rough time getting it going and even when I did get it to "start", it revved right up to where the throttle is set so it can warm up, but goes right off. It was dropped on the front of the motor (none of the sides just the front). I am wondering what could have happened when it was dropped, if anything could be displaced, or severely damaged.
Thanks in advance for any answers or possibilities.
