I have a 94' Chaparral with a 5.7 V8 Mercruiser. When starting the boat up
on the weekend after not starting up all week i get a blue/black smoke for
about 20 seconds then it dissapates. Also when starting it for the first
time i need to pop it in neutral and rev the rpms or else it will stall.
Any suggestions? ? ? Some have said since its an older boat/engine that is
nothign to worry about. Once it's running the smoke goes away and after
running a while i can start it right up w/o reving the rpms. Any info is
appreciated

If it were my F250 the first place I'd be looking is at the carburetor.
