Mine is 2005 mercury 115, but in this year, mercury used yamaha powerheads. I had a similar problem with mine a few years ago at about 500 hours. I would start climbing the Rpms and then all of a sudden it would drop down to just above idle. I would turn off, restart the motor and it would be back to normal for 5 or 10 mins.......or longer sometimes .........then go back to the rpm drop. After going through everything, all the fuel filters, water, injectors........ it turned out to be the filter attached to the bottom of the high pressure fuel pump located in the fuel bowl. Only ****** thing was that the fuel bowl was located behind the manifold. I ended up doing it myself and only took a few hours.02 with under 700 hours
Th kicker started and ran well in the driveway.pull the plugs and post the pics...make note of which plug came out of which cylinder. Is there a breather vent on the fuel tank? Kickers can run forever on the fuel in the line. Does it still run now (the kicker)?

I’m not going to tinker with this one, I’m going to let my mechanic get it back on track. Thanks though!
Definitely not used much over the last couple of years. I’ll feel better once Chris looks it over and deals with a few little odds and ends to get it running tip top.Sounds good, it for sure sounds like fuel supply with diminished pressure. This this thing sit for a long while before you picked it up? Hope he can knock it off fast for ya!!
that’s way too much optimism.Perfect there's a ton of summer left in this year for sure.
Thanks pal.Any day you don’t lose a cannon ball is a good day. Let me know if there’s anything I can do to help.
