- mercruiser 260 hp
I have a mercruiser 260 hp and am having problems with the idle. It will idle fine cold and pulling it off the trailer. getting it threw the marina it has a little hisitation but not much, almost like a miss. It smells a little rich. It planes out fine ran all over the lake at high rpm but as soon as I come back to idle it dies. It will start but dies before I can get it in gear. If I'm fast enough to get it into gear and with some gas it will run fine again at the higher rpm range. I'm the worst when it comes to carbs so any advise would be great.
