Well we finely got the bugs worked out of the Mercury!!
When we took for its first run it would bog down bad when trying to give it gas and BS said the Stator was gone.
When we got back to the house we ck the carbs and found a hole ton of crap in one! So BS had another set of carbs we cleaned all out and made sure all was well. Then tried again, but forgot to ck and clean fuel pump and when out there it ran better but the pump was failing.
So back to the house and got a kit and rebuilt the fuel pump.
Back to the water, again ran 100 times better but yet again something was still wrong, BS says like he had been the hole time the Stator, so back to the barn again we go.
This time BS comes with a pile of stuff everything we woukd need to rebuild the motor! He did a Stator test according to the book and the Stator was indeed bad!, Then ck the switch boxes and they were fine, the rectumfire (LOL) also had a hole burned thru it and we replaced that.
Then pulled all the wires 4 broke as we did this, and ck all the coils. replaced the wires and off to the water again!!
Well after 3 days and replacing most of the ignation system the motor ran like a champ!! We went out for a good hour of running and not a hicup!
It is the smallest horse power I would want on there, but it performs well. I might try a different prop but its not bad right now, my tac is not the best and we are not sure it right but its close.
So thanks to BS I am back on the water as of today!! Thanks BS!!
