I just bought a boat from a guy on CL, its a 14 ft lund with a 15hp 2003 merc 4 stroke.
question 1.
The throttle seems to stick. Gear shifter is fine, but when i turn it to full then back it down, it doesnt always slow to the idle speed. so then i have to quick crank it up then back down, sometimes multiple times to get it back down to idle. Does anyone happen to know of a fix for this?
question 2.
oil. The owner had not changed it much, so i wan to make sure i get it done. I pop off the cowl, and there is a spot for oil to be deposited. open that up and it appears nothing is in there. does that need to be full? ill post pictures if needed.
wonderig if there is anything else i want to make sure to check.
it ran great the 2 times i had it out. if that matters.
thanks in advanc for any help....
