    1998 Force 90hp 2 stroke is it bad?

    The only advice I could add to it; The price is important!! That Force has the latest update('96) Flywheel / Ignition By Mercury (if the price is right/decent shape, I buy it without hesitation)

    Sparkplug reading

    Hi raceone, Thanks for tuning in, what would be the reason for the different on each plug? (meaning more carbon build-up one more then the other) Normally I would check the compression but I'm getting 5600 rpms alone in the boat and 5000+ with two and towing a tube so I'm not too concerned about...

    Sparkplug reading

    Force 125 (1987) shift pivot screw leaking

    If you want to go that route? I would NOT pull out the screw completely but far enough so I can slide the O ring over the head and pray it works. pressurize to 5 psi and check for leaks then fill the cavity with silicone
