My 1987 mecury on my bass tracker is acting crazy. When it is in neutral or idling it runs great but when I put it in gear and give it the throttle it chokes it self down to idle speed again. I have checked the plugs and they are fine. I also changed the fuel, fuel filter. and fuel line and primer bulb. Other than this I am clueless. Does anybody have any ideas or suggestions??? Please help fishing season is coming soon or its hear for me..... Ron

Do a compression check..If ok then its time to check spark on all cylinders..If ok its time to rebuild and clean the carbs.

What hp is the motor? Have you checked the linkage on the carbs to make sure the butterflies are opening?

Does this happen all the time? i.e when it is hot and when cold?
