Re: 150hp ob performance survey
 

lets get back to the question asked ok i have a 150 1988 merc on the transom and love it i had a few problems with the switch box and the stator i called mercury marine and left them a message and i could not believe it the called me back on my cell phone the help me out also i had to replace the stator 3 times in 4 years and when i asked them about it they told me to send them the old stator so they could test it and see if it was something else causing it to go bad, they told me i just got a bad one and reemursed me the money[i couldnt believe it] as for performance it get at wot 31 mph with a s.s 13x19 inch but i am going to change that i have a 15x17 sitting in my garrage to put on and am told it would be alot better
