Howdy,

Sounds more like a fuel problem......you may have a plugged fuel filter or tank screen or a carb problem.

You might check out the adults only sticky...The Mercury service manual for your type engine has a pretty good trouble shooting section that may apply to your OMC engine on generic problems like this.
