Outboard Motor: Mercury 150hp XR6 2 stroke with oil and fuel mixing on its own.
Ok, so earlier this year, I have replaced the thermostats, fuel pump, fuel filter, water pump, new fuel line and bulb, and everything ran fine until a week ago. I took it out last week and noticed that my motor stalls and will not go when I have the throttle lever all the way down. It will just stall and not pick up speed like it would normally do. I timed it and it took about a minute for it to engage somehow and pick up speed. So today, I decided to rebuild the carbs. After spending half the day rebuilding 3 carbs, the motor starts up better but there is a slight problem now. Every time the boat starts up, the boat revs like crazy even though the throttle lever is in the neutral position. I double checked my connections and everything is put back like the way they were. Has anyone experienced this problem before? Please help.
