I had a 68 Merc I6 and it ran great on mid grade. Also make sure not
to use fuel with alcohol or octane boost.

Thanks! The boat is at the doctor right now. Intermittent rough running,
I think I have a bad coil or bad fuel line, something. Plus it needs a
new prop and a tune.

Mine run bad for a while .. it was leaking fuel lines after the fuel
pump... also the fuel pumps were old and weak ...
