"05 Merc Optimax 225 20ft Bullet. Out fishing today, about halfway thru the day we pulled trolling motor up, started the Big Merc, and out of the blue it just started coughing and sputtering. Wouldn't idle on its own and at half throttle we were making about 6mph. Acted like it was starved for gas but wouldn't take any. WTF???:blink:
