Mercury Outboard
waveydavey:
Does anybody know anything about outboard engines? I have a Mercury 402 (made around 1975) which is running badly at high revs.
blueboar:
Not sure about outboards, is the mixture set right?.

I would check the coil packs under the flywheel
The last on I had was a 2 stroke evinrude (Spelling rubbish!!!) 18 on a small crusuier, the coils packs packed up a few times

woody:
not worked on these for years
BUT
last time i had an old mercury engine with running problems
having tried all the usual bits
it turned out it was wear on the reed valves????
mercury have them on the crank (me thinks)
jap stuff have them under the carbs
this makes it very difficult to replace them
so check all the easy stuff first
