Need information on a 71 mercury rocket
I have a 71 mercury rocket that runs great for 30 mins or so and then acts like it runs out of gas and wont restart. After it sits for a while it starts back up and the same thing happens. Im thinking crank seals are bad any suggestions?
Seems unlikely that it's the crank seal that takes 30 min of running to start to cause problems. Check the spark when it will not restart, and see if it's still sparking. If it is, then give it a snort of ether and see if it pops over. That way you will know if it's an ignition or carb problem.. how is the power when it does run?
