    Odyssey Battery

    Big mistake removing GOOD old batteries. The newer ones are DESIGNED to fail in much less time and number of run down cycles. Yes They can really build them to die on a certain year after construction.

    Low compression - 1986 Mercury classic 50

    My 1986 and 1999 Evinrude's both start instantly hot or cold. Remember the starter cranks the engine fast. Enough to almost fire 10 times per second. So any bad mixtures are pumped out instantly.
