I took out my new 25hp electric start Mercury, with trim tilt Saturday for the third time. I was anchored and looking over the back of the transom. I heard a "pop" and looked over to the motor.
Coming from somewhere near or just below where the upper and lower meet, was a glowing orange ball. I won't call it a flame, but a glowing ball!!!! I immediately put my hand in the water, scooped up a handful and doused the hot ball!! To say I was freaked is an understatement.
Can anyone shed some light on this? How is this even possible?
