I have a 50 hp Mercury that has been running good all summer until last weekend. I am able to start it with the throttle engaged but when I shift it into neutral to go forward or reverse it dies. I have let it warm up but same thing. When it is running in throttle it doesn't reve up the same, I can tell there's a difference in how it sounds. The only thing I have done differently is I added about a gallon of mixed gas sitting in an old metal gas tank and I poured that into my tank that was 3/4 full. I did use this gas in the spring and the boat worked fine. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
