    2001 mercury 40 hp 4 stroke missing on botton cyl under load

    Update .... finally forced to revisit this .... with no other options and already to much time sunk in .... i just asked myself , what would I do if it were my motorcycle.? Reamed out the main jet from a 95 to what I believe would be a 100 and raised the float level. Just lake tested and all...

    2001 mercury 40 hp 4 stroke missing on botton cyl under load

    Update..... finally got time to look at this again and last test I did was swap carbs between #2 and #3 cyl .... not easy as it sounds...and the problem followed the carb.

    2001 mercury 40 hp 4 stroke missing on botton cyl under load

    You are right that just because a plug fires in atmosphere doesn't it will fire under compression.... plugs and coils have been swapped out.... have also ruled out valve adjustment now .... carb is coming off again to see what I missed .... thnks for reply

    Early 2000s bf90 carb head scratcher

    I appreciate the reply and thoughts.... sometimes you need to set a job aside and spend some time thinking and hearing ideas.... I have been troubleshooting carbs a long time and these are some of the simplest which in itself can frustrate. At times thinking out loud gets a person back on track

    Early 2000s bf90 carb head scratcher

    Well after cleaning last night and let set till today ... was able to properly set #4 this am... also may have been trying to set idle a little low .... may have been something lingering in one of the body passages..... but apparently cleared now.

    Early 2000s bf90 carb head scratcher

    Just went thru carbs all passages cleaned reinstalled and synched. Here is confusing part .... engine runs perfect , but the idle mix screw on #4 carb has to be turned practically out to smooth the idle.... it has always been this way.... just removed and went over idle circuit again.... no...

    Bf25 lower unit drain plug stripped

    On inspection there is lots of depth and thread for an extended length plug .... now just need to find one. Edit... on closer inspection... only on one side... but I see there may be a 9mm plug available to go to larger thread
