The shifter on my Merc 125 gives very little power until I've moved it quite a ways forward, then WHAM it takes me to 4000 RPM.
I like to pull tubers at about 4200 RPM. But then, the shifter begins to slowly slide back, and before I realize what's happened I'm down to 3200 RPM.
In addition, I have real trouble going slow enough in a no-wake zone. Yet, it's tricky to get it into gear without stalling. Is this a shifter problem, a carb problem, or both?
It's a Quicksilver single lever unit, 1997-98. Anybody know if there's an adjustment I should/can make, here, for these two problems?
Thanks,
Dave
