The engine had no power,I took it one repair shop they cleaned the carbs and charged me 200 buck.I took it out and still ran bad.I took it to another shop,they were very helpful,they adved me that I need to have the carbs rebuilt,880 bucks!! We are talking about a 1999 50 hp 4 stroke,probably less then 50 hrs on it,and these two times are the only times anyone has touched it,they also told me that 3 or 4 bolts are cross-threaded on another part of it,dont know exactly where,have to go talk to him after work. This isnt right for a motor that isnt enough 3 years old! Does anyone know who I could talk to at Mercury?? I bought it from bass pro,it is on a deep V 17' bought from bass pro.Do you thing I should go to them??
