OK I HAVE HAD SOME PROBLEMS WITH MY OUTBOARD. MOST OF THE TIME WHEN I TRY TO TAKE OFF IT WILL NOT GET UP ON PLANE THE RPMS WILL NOT GO ABOVE 3000 OR SO IF SOMEONE HEAVY ENOUGH GETS ON THE BOW IT WILL GET UP ON PLANE BUT WONT GO OVER 49-52 MPH WHICH IS TERRIBLE!! OTHER TIMES THAT WONT EVEN WORK I JUST GOTTA PUTT ACROSS THE LAKE LIKE AN IDIOT. THERE ARE SOMETIMES IT GETS UP AND GOES NO PROBLEM, THEN I WILL KILL IT AND FISH FOR AN HOUR OR SO THEN ITS BACK TO BEING BOGGED DOWN!!! I HAVE NO MORE PATIENCE FOR IT. LOL. IVE GONE THROUGH THE ENTIRE FUEL SYSTEM, THERES NO PROBLEM THERE WHAT ELSE COULD IT BE? PLEASE LET ME KNOW!! THANK YOU!

Agree. Just had this happen with my VMax. She's good to go now with new coils.

I had similar issue a few years ago and only had fire on 3 cylinders making it hard to plane off. That was an older 150 Mercury and I changed out a power pack and all was good.

Take it to a good service shop like service marine in Emory. It is worth every penny to have it fixed right.
