    Merc 40 Force - Takes forever to start

    Chrysler 55 one cylinder occasionally fires

    Reading the tag: no other numbers that I see. From the number that I do see it seems to be a 69-71 Pull the flywheel and file the points, do the set that's not firing too.

    85 horse dropped number 3 cylinder.
