1989 merc 3.0 starts fine, runs fine for about half an hour at any speed
or rpm then starts to miss and will eventually stall. Fuel dripping from
flame arrestor but only once rough running starts. Will sometimes
restart after a few minutes and run ok other times will continue to run
rough and stall.

Are there any members out there that might have some insight into what
the problem might be?

Bad coil. (Goes bad when warm .... ok when cold.)


Yup. Same symptom as a bad stator on an outboard.
