i have just bought a small boat with an 85hp 1979 Mercury. It has a side mount control. I haven't owned an outboard since the 70's and always had Evinrudes. All I need to know is how to use the control. Thanks for your help.
just bought a small boat with a 1979 Mercury 850. Haven't had an outboard since the 70's. Need basic info on how to operate the side mount control and what oil fuel mixture ratio I should be using. Any basic information will be greatly appreciated.
