Put into gear = Engine shuts down?
First, verify good compression and spark. Next, increase the idle. Idle
should be 600 to 800 in gear in the water. After this, rebuild the carbs. Tony "n0sPaM" wrote in message . rogers.com... I got some weird problem with my 1999 Mercury 20HP, sometimes when I gets the engine started but as soon as I put it in gear it dies. Any idea? Boating Newbie |

There could be a rope round the prop causing the engine to stall...

Running lean or idle RPM is set too low. Many of those who troll a lot set
the RPM low to get a better troll. That don't work to good. |
