    Throttle and remote control linkage adjustment

    The engine needs to run for it to shift; do not force the shifter when engine is off!!! Further adjustment can be made on the other end of the shifter-cable (in/on the control-box)

    Mercury outboard blowing steam

    Yup, not when you're running on muffs As racerone mentioned; the lines could be jammed with debris and may slip shut by being cramped together by the water pushing it. Reverse the water flow or pull the water jacket

    '87 Force 125HP ignition problem

    I moved on and swapped the whole "tested good" assembly from the spare over to motor on the boat. Got the motor to run but with the drop down test I noticed #4 is not firing, likely a broken wire during set over. we'll see :{

    50 hp high speed misfire

    :D yeah, I discovered this by running a late '70's Merc. with no LU and it did the exact same thing. and for cooling.......I had shoved a garden-hose onto the copper water-tube. Man, it was loud!!!! without having water as a sound damper. lol

    '87 Force 125HP ignition problem

    Update Stator & trigger check; Stator - Ohm reading were good but not voltage-output on two leads Trigger - Ohm & voltage readings are good thus a keeper Well @jerryjerry05 once again, you were right; a "tested good" stator can be bad :) @Jiggz one thing stays a mystery, how when I...

    Mercury outboard blowing steam

    Tiny bugs like to plug-up the tell-tail & beyond causing very little water to pass through. Remove the the hose & feed picture wire through and try to rotate go as far as you possibly can. Are you sure the water tube is secured into the powerhead and not leaking?

    50 hp high speed misfire

    There's your answer! running it without a prop will make it sound like a misfire! put a prop on and it will not sound like it. They can tear that's an easy check (although I'm not familiar with your engine)
