[QUOTE="logo51, post: 181893, member: 4898"] alright I'm fixing up my fourteen foot john boat and I'm having the motor problems. first off its a early eighties merc. 20 hp. i put a new lower unit in it last year and greased everything up, but what my problem is every time i start it up it has to be choked no matter if i start it for the first time or if it has been running for twenty min. and i need to start it back up. and my second problem is when i go to idle down to switch gears it likes to die or when i idle down in general not just to switch gears. i switched all the hoses and spark plugs. if someone could help me out i would appreciate it. i think it may be a carb problem with the jets but I'm not sure.
