[QUOTE="looserivet, post: 367852, member: 13080"] I'd probably start with a compression test and see what I had in each motor. Also check the lower units for leaks. I've owned both Merc and OMC 25hp motors and prefer the OMC overall. The Mercury was a bit cold hearted in the winter, and mine also idled rough, enough to be annoying. The OMC motors are cheaper to work on, plus all of mine have always started easier than any of my comparable Mercs. [/QUOTE]
