Re: Mercury 650 problems – is it worth an overhaul?

Thanks guys. This motor is going to the doctor next week for full assessment. I can plug through a lot of different things but I want this thing to be reliable. We’re going to have a look at it and see if the bones are solid enough to fix the issues.

I also think it might be a 1975 not a 76

Serial number starts with 426. The Seloc repair manual I picked up says 1976 650 started with serial number 438.

I’m somewhat disappointed with this manual. There’s lots of info for every other model except for this one.
