hi,
have a 1977 mercury 150 hp ob, i-6
has 130 psi in each cylinder,
can run the boat anywhere from 5 minutes to 1 hours, runs great
if i shut it off, restarts easily, put in foward and apply gas it dies. but will
restart everytime. if i pull the cover and manually apply throttle it will sputter
if i spray carb. cleaner into the carbs, especially the top carb. it clears up right away, and will stay that way until the next time i stop, same things again. engine runs cool, water pump work great.
i have replaced the gas tank, hose, fuel filter, gas lines,
any suggestions would be great
thanks
