Re: I'm disappointed with this forum
Your original post:
I have a 1986 50hp merc 3 cylinders and 2 carbs ser # A925129. Its not running on #3 cylinder. 150 psi compression on all 3 cylinders, good fire on all cylinders. Carbs have been rebuilt, new gasket kits installed and new inlet needles. Fuel pump has been rebuilt, new diaphrams and gaskets and new spark plugs.Also have replaced the stator because of rotten wires. #3 cylinder seems to be flooding. Any ideas?
With all that done, it should have been running like a top. I couldn't have made a judgement from that other than you did something wrong, and the way it was worded, you probably wouldn't take kindly to a remark like that.
1. Looks like I was right.
2. You could let us know what you missed, have a laugh, and lighten up.
In other words, this community doesn't exist solely to jump on your first post and solve your problem for you, though it usually does that anyway. It's a sharing community, where we share information, experience, tricks, and sometimes mistakes and self depreciating jabs, all for the fun of it and the benefit of the community.
hope it helps
